My problem was, as dumb as it may seem, that I did not even have the
word `highlight' in my radar. I looked through all the info and wiki
pages that had to do with "font-lock" and "faces", but did not even
thought about giving a try to searching "highlight".
I guess that, despite my dumbness, I will still fill in a report,
suggesting that some sort of link to highlight-mode is placed in at
least one of the font-lock pages.
Santiago.
