v2. Make "normal"-face hash table local to server buffers and double as
cache for inserted `nicks' faces. "Pre-combine" generated `nicks' faces
with `erc-nicks-backing-face' via :include. Overload
`erc-button-add-button' NICKP param (internally) for conveying current
`erc-button--nick' object. Remove `match'-based combo faces from
`erc-track-faces-priority-list' and `erc-track-faces-normal-list'.
Change default of `erc-button-nickname-face' to new face for
distinguishing between button-applied and "speaker" faces.

 updated accordingly.
 
+** 'erc-track-faces-priority-list' and 'erc-track-faces-normal-list' slimmed.
+These options have been purged of certain 'button'-related face
+combinations.  Originally added in ERC 5.3, these combinations
+described the effect of "buttonizing" atop faces added by the 'match'
+module, like '(erc-nick-default-face erc-pal-face)'.  However, since
+at least Emacs 27, 'match' has run before 'button' in
+'erc-insert-modify-hook', meaning such permutations aren't possible.
+
+More importantly, users who've customized either of these options
+should update them with the new default value of the option
+'erc-button-nickname-face'.  Like 'erc-nick-default-face', which it
+replaces, the new 'erc-button-nick-default-face' is also a "real"
+face.  Its sole reason for existing is to make it easier for users and
+modules to distinguish between basic buttonized faces and
+'erc-nick-default-face', which is now reserved to mean the base
+"speaker" face.
+
 ** Option 'erc-query-on-unjoined-chan-privmsg' restored and renamed.
 This option was accidentally removed from the default client in ERC
 5.5 and was thus prevented from influencing PRIVMSG routing.  It's now

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] [5.7] Promote "normal" faces in erc-track

* etc/ERC-NEWS: Add entry for new behavior involving the option
`erc-track-faces-normal-list'.
* lisp/erc/erc-button.el (erc-button-nick-default-face): New face to
serve as default for `erc-button-nickname-face'.
(erc-button-nickname-face): Change default value to
`erc-button-nick-default-face'.
* lisp/erc/erc-track.el (erc-track--old-nick-button-faces,
erc-track--massage-nick-button-faces): New supporting variable and
function to serve as Custom :set function for priority and "normal"
face-list options.
(erc-track-faces-priority-list, erc-track-faces-normal-list): Change
values for `match' module faces to feature
`erc-button-nick-default-face' instead of `erc-nick-default-face'.
(erc-track-ignore-normal-contenders-p): New compatibility switch to
access pre-5.6 behavior, in which faces in
`erc-track-faces-normal-list' were only considered for promotion to
the mode line if the current face occupying that pole position wasn't
present.
(erc-track-mode, erc-track-enable, erc-track-disable): Add FIXME
comments regarding perceived futility of `erc-server-001-functions and
likely unneeded hook removal.  Run common buffer-local setup and
teardown.
(erc-track--normal-faces): New local variable, a snapshot of
`erc-track-faces-normal-list'.
(erc-track--setup): New function to stash
`erc-track-faces-normal-list' on init.
(erc-track-select-mode-line-face): Offer alternate explanation of
certain particulars in doc string.
(erc-track--gett): New helper function.
(erc-track--select-mode-line-face): New function similar to its public
namesake except that it considers other viable candidates among the
"normal" alternatives.
(erc-track-modified-channels): Only run face selection portion when
faces are actually found.  Use `erc-track--select-mode-line-face'
instead of `erc-track-select-mode-line-face'.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-track-tests.el
(erc-track-select-mode-line-face): New test.
(erc-track-tests--select-mode-line-face): New function.
(erc-track--select-mode-line-face): New test.  (Bug#67767)

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] [5.7] Cache shortened channel names in erc-track

* lisp/erc/erc-track.el (erc-track--shortened-names): New variable to
stash both the latest inputs and most recent result of
`erc-track-shorten-function'.
(erc-track--shortened-names-current-hash,
erc-track--shortened-names-set, erc-track--shortened-names-get): New
pair of generalized-variable functions and helper variable for
accessing and mutating `erc-track--shorten-prefixes'.
(erc-modified-channels-display): Avoid redundant calls to
`erc-track-shorten-function'.  Mainly for use during batch processing.
* test/lisp/erc/erc-track-tests.el
(erc-track--shortened-names): New test.  (Bug#67767)

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] [5.7] Add erc-track integration to erc-nicks

* lisp/erc/erc-button.el (erc-button--nick): Add `face-cache' slot.
(erc-button-add-nickname-buttons): Pass `erc-button--nick' object, if
created' as the boolean NICK-P parameter when calling
`erc-button-add-button'.  Keeping the latter ignorant
`erc-button--nick' is of course preferable, but some coordination is
now required to convey and use the face cache.  We could introduce an
abstraction, like a local variable, if this becomes an issue.
(erc-button-add-button): Use `erc--merge-prop' instead of
`erc-button-add-face' to apply button faces.  Hold off on deprecating
the latter because it provides unique functionality for nesting faces.
Also, consult NICK-P if it's an `erc-button--nick' object for the
various overriding faces it knows about.
* lisp/erc/erc-nicks.el (erc-nicks-track-faces): New option.
(erc-nicks--highlight-button): Set the `face-cache' slot of the
`erc-button--nick' object when `track' is loaded and initialized.
(erc-nicks-mode, erc-nicks-enable, erc-nicks-disable): Add and remove
`track' integration.
(erc-nicks--reject-uninterned-faces): New function to remove faces
created by `nicks' from buttonized speakers and mentions.  Conform
to `erc-track--face-reject-function' interface.
(erc-nicks--setup-track-integration): New function.
(erc-nicks--remember-face-for-track): New function to cache
nick faces owned by this module.  (Bug#67767)
