Timothy, I am happy to see the fontification of inline src blocks in org. Thank you!
However, I am finding the result not very pleasing unfortunately. Specifically, I am not happy with the use of other pre-existing faces (shadow and org-meta-line) for this purpose. These other faces have their specific uses and the resulting combination for inline src blocks, for me, is ugly. I do not wish to modify those faces for this use case as it will affect their use everywhere else. Philosophically, the language element in an inline src block is not a /meta line/, at least not in my view: it's not even a line... 😉 Would it be possible to create new faces specifically for the various bits you want to differentiate, e.g. org-inline-src-block-language? I don't mind if they have the defaults to be the same as org-meta-line and org-shadow etc. but at least I can customise them separately.
