I tried using this.  It's not actually as helpful as you might like, since it
doesn't help you pick a face name that actually exists.  At least for me --
Aquamacs 3.0 nightly build, which is emacs 24.3.50.3 -- the face name is simply
a text box entry form.  I doubt that is up to AucTeX, right?  It's a decision of
the customize interface, I assume....

According to the manual, you can use the customize interface *without*
restarting emacs, but if you just set the variable, you must restart.  Do you
know if that's still true?  Or do we always need to restart emacs?

Interestingly, although I was able to make this work, a colleague using
Aquamacs 2.4 (emacs 22, I think), was not.  He entered the same stuff, but it
made no difference, even when he restarted emacs.

Thanks for the help,
