Sure, but the only change needed in all the cases you described in
order to return attributes that are aware of the remapping is to look
up the face in face-remapping-alist, before calling face-attribute.
This solution is so easy that I don't understand the need for changing
the behavior of face-attribute in such fundamental and incompatible
ways to produce the same effect.

Am I missing something?
