Well, I would consider that to be rather obscure.
By definition, minibuffer-prompt is the face for minibuffer prompts,
and it should be safe to assume that, and not have to wade through
minibuffer-prompt-properties to see if the user has specified a
different face for the face property.
Placing some other face in minibuffer-prompt-properties
is against the intentions of that I think.
So IMO it is pretty obscure to allow the user to modify the
face property in the defcustom for minibuffer-prompt-properties.
If anything, it should be a boolean which says:
[x] use minibuffer-prompt face
instead of allowing the user to change the face used.
I do not think it is that obscure. There is however a variable missing
here, the defvar minibuffer-prompt. Normally there is such variable
pointing to the face. The purpose is to make customizations easier.
However in this case it is omitted. If I remember correctly it was
omitted because it seemed unnecessary when minibuffer-prompt-properties
could be changed instead. (I think RMS did it this way.)
