The decorations are drawn by the class
batik.gvt.renderer.StrokingTextPainter, in the method 'paintDecorations'.
This code assumes a decoration is a single 'line'. It also depends on
batik.gvt.text.GlyphLayout to provide raw geometry, this class also
assumes
decorations are a single line.

The code that does the wrapping is batik.gvt.flow.FlowTextPainter.
It collects the lines in a list, lineInfos but currently that is dropped
at the end of the 'textWrap' method.

I think if you had the List of LineInfo Objects you could do something.
It's worth noting that FlowTextPainter is a subclass of
StrokingTextPainter,
so it could override 'paintDecorations' to draw decorations better.
