It allows the use of

   emacs --eval '(setq server-name "foo")' --daemon

which seems sufficient.  Also it makes server-start take into account
the config settings in the user's .emacs.
I.e. I thing it's just the right thing to do.

You happened to place the call to server-start just at the same place
where you had to disable the call to frame-initialize, but there's
really no fundamental reason why it should be there.
