It doesn't do the same.  Your example only affects the `face' property,
whereas what the doc is talking about is how to set several text properties,
additionally to the `face' property (e.g. thinks like `keymap', `display'
`invisible', ...).

It's probably discussed in the section talking about faces.
It's not specific to font-lock at all.
