This is a useful, general function, not just a helper.
Please consider giving it a better name and doc string.

Wrt the doc, the SPEC arg is apparently NOT a face spec, i.e., a spec
such as is returned by (get FACE 'face-defface-spec).  Instead, it seems
to be an attributes list such as what is returned by `face-spec-choose'
or `face-attr-construct'.

OK, I renamed SPEC to FACE-ATTRS where appropriate, and improved the
related doc strings.

Thanks.
