Well, I almost like this setup. The thing I don't like is a face having
all these properties. A property list like this should be recognized as
an instantiator for a font specifier.
Well, that was kind of the idea behind font.el. Although you need more
than just a font specifier to replace font.el. You would need various new
face specifiers like dropcaps, smallcaps, etc. But that takes more
redisplay hackery than just new font stuff.
