Yes, it does.

Another problem is the following (using your patch):

    C-x 2

And in *Scratch* eval:

    (copy-face 'mode-line 'mode-line-inactive)

Now both mode lines are displayed with the mode-line face.  Open
another frame:

    C-x 5 b RET

The new frame has the old mode-line-inactive.  Okay.  But, and that is
a little bit astonishing, going back to *Scratch* and eval:

    (copy-face 'highlight 'mode-line-inactive)

This time it will affect the other frame, too.
