Here is the output on the "d" in a red "done":

I don't know what I expect as I have never played with faces before. I
expect the done should be green, even if it's scheduled/deadlined...
because it's done and that's how done shows up everywhere else. I'm
trying to figure out why it would show up as red even though it's
done. The description for "done" shows up in green despite "done"
being red. The description of "todo" shows up in red and "todo" is
also in red.

The screenshot in the original post and the example file should reveal
everything. Here is a new one from today: http://i.imgur.com/HyjAj.png
And here is a commented basic org file that produces that picture for me:
#+begin_src org
#+todo: todo(t) next(n!) proj(p) | waiting(w@/@) done(d/@) cancelled(c@/@)
* done no schedule/no deadline
- in org buffer: green "done"
- does not show in agenda buffer (as expected)
* done scheduled
SCHEDULED: <2011-08-24 Wed>
- in org buffer: green "done"
- agenda buffer 8/24: red "done", lt. green title
- agenda buffer 8/25: not shown (as expected)
* done deadline
DEADLINE: <2011-08-25 Thu>
- in org buffer: green "done"
- agenda buffer 8/24: red "done", lt. green title
- agenda buffer 8/25: red "done", lt. green title
* done deadline + scheduled
DEADLINE: <2011-08-25 Thu> SCHEDULED: <2011-08-24 Wed>
- in org buffer: green "done"
- agenda buffer 8/24: not shown (as expected)
- agenda buffer 8/25: red "done", lt. green title
* DONE no schedule/no deadline
- in org buffer: blue "DONE" (not registered as todo keyword)
- does not show in agenda buffer (as expected)
* DONE scheduled
SCHEDULED: <2011-08-24 Wed
- in org buffer: blue "DONE"
- agenda buffer 8/24: dark green "DONE", dark green title
- agenda buffer 8/25: not shown (as expected)
* DONE deadline
DEADLINE: <2011-08-25 Thu>
- in org buffer: blue "DONE"
- agenda buffer 8/24: not shown (as expected)
- agenda buffer 8/24: shown again with "In 1d." with brown "DONE" and title
- agenda buffer 8/25: red "DONE", red title
* DONE deadline + scheduled
DEADLINE: <2011-08-25 Thu> SCHEDULED: <2011-08-24 Wed>
- in org buffer: blue "DONE"
- agenda buffer 8/24: dark green "DONE", dark green title
- agenda buffer 8/24: shown again with "In 1d." with brown "DONE" and title
- agenda buffer 8/25: red "DONE", red title
#+end_src
My .emacs contains this relevant section:
----------
(setq org-todo-keywords '((sequence
"todo(t)" "next(n)" "proj(p)" "|"
"waiting(w@/@)" "done(d)" "cancelled(c@/@)")))
----------
So, to sum up...
- "done" is recognized by the org buffer, but seems to trigger the
"todo" face in agenda. It also isn't seeming to trigger advance
warnings for deadlines (In 1d.).
- "DONE" is not recognized by the org buffer as a todo keyword,
registers with agenda to give an advance deadline warning, shows up
with a green todo keyword on the day before, but shows up in all red
on the day of.
Is this weird or as expected? I'm still not sure. My eyes gravitate
toward red keywords and so it really perplexed me that done's were
showing up in red on their scheduled/deadlined days despite being
done. Since writing this email and since no one responded for a couple
weeks, I hunted and found these options, which are now in my .emacs:
----------
(setq org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-done t)
(setq org-agenda-skip-deadline-if-done t)
----------
It hasn't been a problem since.
I'm still interested in the answer on this, though.
Thanks,
John
