... I guess the user will see that it has no effect. Then he
_will_ read the documentation.
If he sees that it has no effect he is not going to assume the lack of
effect is a feature; he is going to assume it is a bug. Worse, there
is a good chance he will not read the documentation. Unfortunately,
this is the way many people are, even some Emacs users. :-(
The user could have legitimate reasons to customize the face, even
if he is using GTK.
Yes, you are right. Very true.
