Thank you very much for the clarification.  I just corrected my code.
However, it seems to me that the current behavior is not
user-friendly.  (facemenu-set-face "bold" 1 2) _does_ make the text
bold, without any warning - which makes it appear that the call was
successful - but then we get an error when we try to save the buffer.
Generally, it is best for errors to be detected as close to their
source as possible.  What do you think?

Regards
