describe all faces at point?

[Sam Steingold]

Hi,
When I do `M-x describe-face`, the default face is, according to the doc,
> "the faces of the character after point"

However, looking at the `*Fancy Diary Entries*` buffer, I see many
different colors, and `M-x describe-face` offers the `diary-button` as
the default for _some_ characters that have _different_ colors (and the
`sample` in the `*Help*` buffer for one of them does _not_ match its
appearance).

Moreover, `(get-char-property (point) 'face)` returns `diary-button` for
both of those characters and `(face-at-point nil t)` returns
`(diary-button)` for them too.

So, how come two characters in the same buffer have different colors but
the same faces?
