These lines are all considered "mode lines" in the display code, and
have the mode_line_p flag set.  So "mode line" is used here in a
slightly different sense than it might seem at first glance.

That said, I would not object to renaming this function, but only if
the new name makes more sense.  "Line with face" is too general to
make sense, because basically every line on a typical Emacs display
has some face.

Also, if we are inventing a new collective name to these 3 display
lines, we need to rename the mode_line_p flag to have the same name.

Thanks.
