Talking with eta on this.. and I hope I got this correct:

mess wswan -cart saga = will not work because wswan list does not contain "saga".

mess wswan saga = will work, because it looks though all compatible lists. (wswan + wscolor)

mess wswan -cart wscolor:saga = will work, since you specifically told it to use the "wscolor" list.

So, the current example above is what is supposed to happen when you attempt to load a cart with a media type from a list outside of your setname. So, no bug.
