My humble opinion on this is that either the compose function should
report an exception / error, or pick some arbitrary behavior (e.g. just
use the 1st face for the entire substitution) and use that.
It seems strange to me to accept the current non-deterministic,
display-corrupting behavior as a reasonable alternative.
