A (last?) note on this. Fringes were introduced in Emacs 21, and face remappings much later, in Emacs 23. Before face remappings existed (i.e. in Emacs 21 and 22), a left/right-fringe display property with an omitted face meant using the fringe face without modifications. It is only when face remappings, a feature completely unrelated to fringe displays, were introduced, that the current behavior (to use the fringe face when the default face has not been remapped, and the remapped default face otherwise) started to exist.
