Thanks.

When setting colors and other properties in Enriched mode, you are
supposed to use commands from facemenu.el (and/or the menu-bar menu
items it produces, under Edit->Text Properties).

The immediate reason for the error is that you should do this instead:

  M-: (insert (propertize "foo" 'face '((:background "red")))) RET

but I'm not sure we want to extend enriched.el to support arbitrary
face specs.  What is the real-life use case for that?
