	… Or should such a predicate be introduced to faces.el instead?
	The merge_face_ref () logic is a bit arcane, so I’d rather keep
	it confined to the inner parts of Emacs (whether faces.c,
	faces.el, or similar.)

	Please consider the revised patch MIMEd.

	* lisp/faces.el (face-list-p): New function.
	* lisp/facemenu.el (facemenu-add-face): Use it.  (Bug#19912)

	Unless there be objections, I hope to push this new change
	to ‘master’ within the next day or two.
