Inheriting from default is rarely what you want to do.  Here it's just
a workaround.  The only case I can think of where it makes sense to inherit
from `default' is in cases where you want this face to override the effects
of other faces, e.g. if you want to override the background color of the
header-line on some part of the header-line text, you can place on that text
a face that inherits from `default'.
