I'm not sure i understand what you mean. I suppose you start 'emacs
--no-desktop' and have some lines in your .emacs that load/save your desktop.
You think those lines should not load/save your desktop when --no-desktop was
specified?
Well emacs does what you tell it to do ;-).

--no-desktop can not 'turn off a turned-on Save Desktop' because when emacs is
started there is no 'turned-on Save Desktop'.
It seems you would like --no-desktop to be much more final??
I think it would be wrong. When i start emacs with --no-desktop then yes it
should not load any saved desktop. But then later when a "desktop-save"
command is issued (no matter if via M-x or .emacs) i expect emacs to do just
that.
