Is there any code in Emacs that does _not_ use `highlight' for
mouse-face?

If not (or if the other cases are a very small minority), this should
probably be fixed for Emacs in general, not just in compile.el.

Also, someone should perhaps see if using arbitrary faces for mouse
highlight will not be too dangerous (given how this is implemented in
the display engine), before we allow to customize it.
