Why not have a font-lock-warning face and a font-lock-error face?
I think some more reasonably named generic fonts to pick from would make
theming a lot easier.
As Drew said, faces need to make sense in their context.
I just spent some time picking sensible faces from the font-lock-*
palette for dired+, which by default defines its own static faces.
Most themes don't address these, resulting in readability issues.
I ended up with a nice looking setup, but the face names make no sense
*at all* in their context.
Some generic faces, that could guarantee some extend of contrast between
them would make consistency much easier.
