Daan Sandee suggests that Cornish choughs actually fit into my first category
of Proper.

Well, yes, I suppose, but I was trying to distinguish between "things that 
use colors that aren't heraldic, so we use "proper" to allow us to blazon the
colors" and "things that use only heraldic colors, but we'd like a 
shorthand term so we don't have to blazon all those little bits explicitly".
Cornish choughs, being sable and gules, fall into category 2.
