All faces have very terse doc strings and I naturally assumed that was the 
preferred style; it certainly didn't prevent me from understanding it. Anyway, 
I have amended the doc strings of both font-lock-doc-face and 
font-lock-doc-markup-face.

Maybe, but let's not exaggerate; this is standard terminology. Nevertheless, 
the text has been extended.

Very well, they have now all been expanded further.
