raising/lowering text as part of a "face"

raising/lowering text as part of a "face"

[Benjamin Slade]

I'm trying to figure out how to get raising/lowering (for
super-/sub-script) to work as part of a "face", as AUCTeX does.

You can't (neither does AUCTeX get this result as part of a face).
What latex-mode does (and AUCTeX I presume does the same) is to combine
a face (to specify the smaller size) with a `display' text-property
(which specifies the raising/lowering).
