We could use that. Or perhaps "setting". What do people think of those? Any other suggestions? "setting" would work. The simple alternative "option or face" is not even _that_ long and in certain contexts one can even just use option and rely on the fact that it is clear from the context that in this particular case it applies to faces too.
