It appears you are right. However I don't think we are apt to fix this
as SVG 1.2 changed directions after we implemented this. Post
Batik 1.6 we updated the flowDiv/flowPara elements to implement the
TextContent interface. So you can get the bbox of individual chars
which you could use to build this up.

flowRoot doesn't have a height attribute. You would set the height
attribute on the rect. You should make sure the rect is 'oversized'
before you start otherwise the last chars won't be displayed at all.

It looks good to me.
