Hello all,

I’ve noticed that the faces defined by org-copy-face are not added to
the org-faces customize group.  This is in accordance with the docstring
of ‘copy-face’, which says (in part) “This function does not copy face
customization data, so NEW-FACE will not be made customizable.  Most
Lisp code should not call this function; use `defface' with :inherit
instead.”

I think it’s at best an odd surprise and at worst a bug that all org’s
faces are not accessible from the org-faces customize group.  Would
there be any objection to replacing all uses of this function with
:inherit as recommended by the docstring, and removing the org-copy-face
function?

For reference, here are the uses of the function, as returned by rgrep:

./lisp/org-faces.el:431:(org-copy-face 'org-todo 'org-checkbox-statistics-todo
./lisp/org-faces.el:434:(org-copy-face 'org-done 'org-checkbox-statistics-done
./lisp/org-faces.el:540:(org-copy-face 'org-meta-line 'org-block-begin-line
./lisp/org-faces.el:543:(org-copy-face 'org-meta-line 'org-block-end-line
./lisp/org-faces.el:560:(org-copy-face 'org-block 'org-quote
./lisp/org-faces.el:562:(org-copy-face 'org-block 'org-verse
./lisp/org-faces.el:600:(org-copy-face 'org-agenda-structure 'org-agenda-date
./lisp/org-faces.el:603:(org-copy-face 'org-agenda-date 'org-agenda-date-today
./lisp/org-faces.el:607:(org-copy-face 'secondary-selection 'org-agenda-clocking
./lisp/org-faces.el:610:(org-copy-face 'org-agenda-date 'org-agenda-date-weekend
./lisp/org-faces.el:719:(org-copy-face 'org-time-grid 'org-agenda-current-time
./lisp/org-faces.el:791:(org-copy-face 'mode-line 'org-mode-line-clock
./lisp/org-faces.el:793:(org-copy-face 'mode-line 'org-mode-line-clock-overrun

Thanks,
