It's not essentially a plist, but a list of :keyword value pairs, but that's splitting hairs. face-all-attributes could return such a plist, but we usually prefer to return alists from functions instead of plists. > Is there a good reason for this status quo?

We can't change the output of face-all-attributes (because that would break code), so I don't think there's anything to do here, and I'm closing this bug report. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
