bug#19217: 25.0.50; `C-M-x' (`eval-defun') on a `defface' that is not top-level |

Enhancement request. This has probably been requested before, but
here goes...
It is not uncommon to have a `defface' inside a condition such as (when
(> emacs-major-version 23)...). Currently, `C-M-x' has no effect on
such a `defface' occurrence. In order to have Emacs DTRT, I find myself
working around this limitation by temporarily moving the `defface' to
bol.
How about letting users redefine a `defface' with `C-M-x' even in this
case?
At least optionally. For example, let a non-positive prefix arg do
this, and have edebug instrumentation done only for a non-negative
prefix arg.
Or maybe always (not optionally)? Is there a good reason for doing this
only at top-level?
If the reason is that `eval-defun' cannot recognize the defun
(`defface') unless it is at top level, then surely there is some way to
make this more flexible.
