Random thought: Would it make sense to make `put-text-property' (and
friends) try to ensure that `face' (and `font-lock-face'?) are towards
the start of the plists?

That wouldn't help with intervals that don't have a `face' at all, but
should speed up the ones that have, and would be relatively low impact.

I don't think we guarantee anything about the order, so it might not
break anything.
