+;;; Commentary:
+;; `global-font-lock-mode' fontifies the *dashboard* buffer and strips the
+;; manually-applied `face' text properties dashboard puts on the banner title
+;; (`dashboard-banner-logo-title') and the section headings
+;; (`dashboard-heading'), so they render in the default face instead of the
+;; theme colors. dashboard-config excludes dashboard-mode from global
+;; font-lock so those text-property faces survive.
