Because tab-mark, tabs, trailing, etc ... work via faces, could the requirement for faces declaration be removed from whitespace-style?
In summary, from
(setq whitespace-style '(face tab-mark tabs trailing))
to
(setq whitespace-style '(tab-mark tabs trailing))

No. As the doc string says:
---
One reason to not use faces to visualize spaces (i.e., not
include `face' in `whitespace-style') is to use `whitespace-mode'
only for cleaning up a buffer. See `whitespace-cleanup' and
`whitespace-cleanup-region'.
---
Closing.

Could whitespace-cleanup and whitespace-cleanup-region decide by themselves what they have to do?
