Now that we have a new function `add-face-text-property' it would be
very useful for features that add faces with a different background
to highlight matches. For instance, `occur' uses `add-text-properties'
to add the `match' face, but currently it removes foreground colors
from the text copied from the fontified buffer.
`add-face-text-property' can help to keep the original foreground colors
in the text copied from fontified buffers. And if someone still wants
to always use the black foreground, this is easy to do by customizing
the `match' face and explicitly selecting a foreground color.

Another place where `add-face-text-property' could help is for the
recently added face `info-index-match'. Currently it looks very ugly
when the `info-index-match' face is added in the middle of a link
that breaks its continuity. A test case is: `C-h r I match RET'.
This is because `Info-index' adds the `info-index-match' face to the
strings of the found index entries. Later `Info-virtual-index-find-node'
inserts strings to the Info buffer. And finally `Info-fontify-node'
puts the `font-lock-face' property with `info-xref' on links.
The `face info-index-match' takes precedence over `font-lock-face info-xref'.
This patch uses `add-face-text-property' to merge the `info-index-match'
face with the `info-xref' face. I think it's not a problem that
it will use the text property `face' instead of `font-lock-face'
since more strategically advantageous direction of the development
for the Info reader would be to move from font-lock-mode to more
browser-like design like in eww.
However, the problem is that usually a highlighting feature puts
a highlighting face on the already fontified string, but this code
reverses the order and first it highlights matches and later puts
more regular text properties on it (so this reversal requires the non-nil
APPEND arg of `add-face-text-property'). Unfortunately, I have no better idea.

I was going to propose a similar change to use `add-face-text-property'
in hi-lock, but it turned out to be much simpler because hi-lock
is based on font-lock that already has `font-lock-prepend-text-property'
that does the same:

If I'm reading this correctly, something similar has been added in the
intervening years:
(let ((pattern (list (lambda (limit)
(let ((case-fold-search case-fold)
(search-spaces-regexp spaces-regexp))
(re-search-forward regexp limit t)))

Using the text property `face' instead of `font-lock-face'
might break something, so a better patch below removes
the text properties `face info-index-match' from the Info buffer
and replaces them with `font-lock-face info-index-match'
in `Info-virtual-index-find-node'. And `Info-fontify-node'
merges them with its `font-lock-face' text properties using
`font-lock-prepend-text-property'. Here is a summary:
1. `Info-index' puts `info-index-match face' on index strings.
2. `Info-virtual-index-find-node' inserts them into the Info buffer.
3. It also converts text properties `face info-index-match' to
`font-lock-face info-index-match' in the Info buffer.
4. `Info-fontify-node' prepends `font-lock-face info-xref' to links.

This hadn't been fixed, so I applied your patch to Emacs 28.

This patch breaks Info fontification, please revert it.
Here is what I said in the message sent later with another patch at
https://debbugs.gnu.org/14645#14
Using the text property `face' instead of `font-lock-face'
might break something, so a better patch below removes
the text properties `face info-index-match' from the Info buffer
This is why I posted a better patch. But please give me more time
to test the second better patch, I'm not yet sure how well it works now.

Thanks for alerting us to the breakage, but would it be possible to
have a test which would make sure the fontification functionality in
Info is not broken, so that we don't have to rely on the memory and
attention of those who are experts on that?
