Honoring what?  Your statement makes no sense.  I'm talking about the fact that 
your proposal does not do what the current implementation does.
In your proposal, the foreground to use (distant foreground) would be 
calculated by Emacs.
In the current implementation, the foreground to use is specified by the system 
(Gtk+/NS).
How do you specify that in your proposal?
