Redisplay is not the issue here; non-basic faces are.  See below.

f->official only means that the basic faces were realized; all the
other faces are not realized yet.  So if you want that flag to be it,
we will have to make sure all the faces are realized before we set
that flag.  I believe the faces are realized in
face-set-after-frame-default.
