Does this really matter at all?

I think the questions should be "does it make sense to both use
symbols as names and expose the objects?", "if so, do we need to be
able to tell the difference?", and "if not, should we suppress the
objects or what should we do?"

And "should we support GNU-style anonymous faces (property lists)?"
