I don't think new faces should be introduced if there are existing faces for similar purposes. However, if new proposed faces for the mode line (major-mode, minor-mode, vc) will be added then certainly a special face for the buffer name should be added to the same set of mode line faces as well. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
