    - Why use an alist rather than a list.

I think Joe Arceneaux did it that way just to have parallel calling
conventions for several functions.

Someone later added `remove-list-of-text-properties' which is similar but
takes a list of property names.

It would be possible to implement `remove-list-of-text-properties' by
consing up an alist and calling `remove-text-properties', but that
would be wasteful consing.  The inverse would also be wasteful
consing.
