** New function insert-buffer-substring-no-properties.
** New function display-supports-face-attributes-p may be used to test
whether a given set of face attributes is actually displayable.
A new predicate `supports' has also been added to the `defface' face
specification language, which can be used to do this test for faces
defined with defface.
** Enhanced networking support.
*** There is a new `make-network-process' function which supports

This function returns non-@code{nil} if all the face attributes in
@var{attributes} are supported (@pxref{Face Attributes}).
The definition of `supported' is somewhat heuristic, but basically
means that a face containing all the attributes in @var{attributes},
when merged with the default face for display, can be represented in a
way that's
@enumerate
@item
different in appearance than the default face, and
@item
`close in spirit' to what the attributes specify, if not exact.
@end enumerate
Point (2) implies that a @code{:weight black} attribute will be
satisfied by any display that can display bold, as will
@code{:foreground "yellow"} as long as some yellowish color can be
displayed, but @code{:slant italic} will @emph{not} be satisified by
the tty display code's automatic substitution of a `dim' face for
italic.
