The standard face to use for these is the nil face.

I don't know what this refers to.  Which languages have those?

These also use the nil "standard face".

I'm not a big "angry fruit salad" fan, so I don't have a strong opinion
on these: I think it's OK if most of the code uses the default face, and
if people introduce new faces for "variable reference", "function call",
"number", "method call", "field access", "indirect function call",
"inlinable function call", ... I'll just tweak those faces to look like
the default face.
