the bg color coalescing/merge yes, could be done. Yet in many cases it
wouldn't help yet. if you have alternating colors, it would still issue one
context_set() + rectangle_draw() PER char, that will calculate color
multiply, that would apply cutouts... and of course generate one useless
thread command. The render engine could do better at that.
Really I'm even thinking about exposing the Evas_Textgrid_Cell to the
engine, removing the need to convert it to its own structure as it's now.
It's more efficient, as you can use the indexed palette to save space and
operations when looking for colors and multiply.
Bad is only that Eina_Unicode codepoint would require exposing the
translation to glyph.
As for text: the current font_draw will handle a line just fine, unless I

evas_object_textgrid_size_set() can change the grid cell size, then we'd
have to ignore the usual kerning/spacing and use that. We'd have to work to
fix and make it usable.
with a custom textgrid engine we can simplify the loop:
for (y = y0; y < y1; y += h)
for (x = x0; x < x1; x += w, glyph++)
draw(x, y, w, h, *glyph)
