I'm not an expert either, but with this patch applied I see colours,
without this patch, I don't see colours, ie. everything is rendered
using the default face.

I'm also not entirely sure if that's the correct way of doing things
since 'face seems to be working in other modes (most notably
notmuch-show).  By posting, I'm also hoping that someone more
experienced will maybe take a look to see what's going on here... ;)

For some more info, in notmuch-show mode, I get-text-property of nil for
both 'face and 'font-lock-face, but in message-mode or in *scratch*
buffer I'm getting nil for 'font-lock-face but non-nil for 'face.  With
the patch, I'm getting the same non-nil for both 'face and
'font-lock-face; without the patch, I'm getting nil for both.
