I can customize a whole bunch of dired-* faces, and when I deselect 
some "inherit"
flag, the faces a even used in the buffer. However, and that is still 
my main problem,
I can't find the face for meta  information for a file except for the 
file name.
Everything that's marked in [ ] here:

This still appears in the proportional default face.
