On the first screen, yes.  Where it shows:


  There are text properties here:
  face                 org-link

'org-link' is a link itself.  Clicking it gives another screen, with
two links at the top:


Face: org-link (sample) (customize this face)

Clicking 'customize this face' gives another screen which shows the
well-known field where to enter the colour name.  On that screen
'Inherit' is enabled and in lieu of the colour the following is shown:

Face: (sample) link

'link' is where the colour name would be.  Changing 'link' for an
actual colour name it does not give good results.  Hence my question.
