However, in the case of `set-face-underline-p' this is misleading, because UNDERLINE-P is not a flag (it can also be a color). Will someone object if I just change arg UNDERLINE-P to UNDERLINE and fix the info in the Emacs Lisp Reference (which doesn't mention the color option)? (This would also affect `modify-face', BTW.) This function has been around for a long time, so let's not think of changing its name now. - I know `internal-find-face' and `internal-get-face' are obsolete since 21.1, but their docstrings lie horribly about the FRAME argument. Wouldn't be better to just say "The argument FRAME is ignored"? Ok. - Shouldn't `face-id' return an answer also for face aliases? I.e., instead of In principle, that sounds right, but I don't want to risk the change now. - `face-differs-from-default-p' checks all face attributes except :inherit (obviously) and :stipple. Should it check :stipple? Yes, if there is really a bug. Can you verify that there is one?
