Ha! The adwaita-theme only has 70 lines of face
settings. I have 94 and I didn't even know the concept
of theme until now... But when I load-file my faces
from the state of a previous built-in theme, there are
remnants of the old order so my "theme" is nonetheless
incomplete, it seems.

OK. There was a guy on this list - Jambunathan K - who
was in contact with another guy who did Emacs "suites"
with skeletons of Emacs configuration to appeal
to/offer a head start to certain personalities and
expected usage (as in bright-on-black, programming,
Gnus, and so on) - I don't know what happened to them
and that project, or if they even included faces, but
they should as Gnus for example is dead boring without
some makeup.
