What's a "face object" in Emacs?  [Indeed, what's a "face object" in Xemacs?]

How are they different than a face name (other than what `facep' returns
in Xemacs)?

Given that Xemacs has a differing definition of facep requiring one to
use `find-face' instead, would an Emacs version:

   (defun find-face (face) (and (facep face) face))

do the job?
