For instance, the following doesn't work:
Eval:
(message "%s" (propertize "foo" 'face 'font-lock-variable-name-face))
Echoes:
#("foo" 0 3 (face font-lock-variable-name-face))
Eval:
(message "%s" (propertize "foo" 'face '(:foreground "red")))
Echoes:
#("foo" 0 3 (face (:foreground "red")))
Also, eldoc seems to also make use of `message' to output propertized
strings (eldoc.el:206:0) so it (seems it) can be used for this purpose.
Question is what's wrong with my approach above?
