Hi, Emacs.

In Emacs 24.4, start with -Q.

Do M-x customize-group <RET> paren-showing-faces <RET>.

This now displays the two pertinent faces.  There is, however, no widget
by which they might be edited.

Starting Emacs without -Q doesn't seem to help.

	Works for me as of the last week’s HEAD – the widgets appear
	when I RET on the “[Show]” buttons.

Ah, OK.  I see it now.  What I saw (on a tty) was:

    "Show Paren Match face: [sample]"

.  What was actually there was

    "Show Show Paren Match face: [sample]"

, with the first "Show", the active one, being indistiguishable from the
second "Show".  They really ought to have distinct faces.

I fired up a GUI Emacs to see what that's like, and that's no problem at
all.

	They use ‘custom-visibility’ and ‘custom-face-tag’, which then
	inherit from ‘link’ and ‘custom-variable-tag’, respectively.

	The first one is cyan, the second is bold light blue, which are
	indeed indistinguishable on a (VGA-style) tty.  (They /are/ on,
	say, a monochrome XTerm, for instance.)

Yup, looks identical here, too.  However, with the [ brackets ] around
the different bits, it should be clear that they're two different things
to click.  So I don't really think this needs tweaking, and I'm closing
this bug report.
