In my opinion, this issue is not resolved, please consider reopening it.
With the change that is now installed, the documentation reads:
Many parts of Emacs require named faces, but some do not accept
anonymous faces (e.g., the functions documented in @ref{Attribute
Functions})
Where "require named faces" and "do not accept anonymous faces" amounts
to the same thing, so the wording seems not to be the intended one.
So in fact, the documentation now stresses further that named faces are
required, whereas the point of this issue is to document that anonymous
faces can be used for fontification. This still cannot be deduced from
the current manual. If that works, could you please document it?
Thank you and all the best,
Markus
