Indeed. When I tried that method in the past, I got it working
half-way with italicized text (the width was correct, but the height
wasn't.) I ended up having to do more math on top of
-boundingRectWithSize: based on the font's descender. Eventually it
worked for my specific case, but I doubt my technique works in every
scenario.

I'll keep NSLayoutManager in mind for the future...
