bug#35044: 25.2; Description of "disappearing" faces (Emacs Manual)

To sum things up, approach for this bug won't be updating "Emacs
manual", because it could end up as an excuse for bug(s), but rather:

1. updating "Elisp manual" with advice to use 'font-lock-face' over
   'face' (which you already did with patch) - dev pov,

2. updating "table.el" to use 'font-lock-face' instead 'face' - user
   pov.

But won't it (especially point 2.) start a "face hunt", because there
may be other functions/modes that have the same problem - using 'face'
when they should use 'font-lock-face'... or should I just don't care
until it happen?

S. U.
