Hi Sergey,

would you please elaborate the modifications you suggest? I'd be very
unhappy if we had to do changes in the layout engine just to accomodate
the text renderer. I think I don't quite understand what you have in
mind.

Furthermore, I'm not sure if using different font-sizes in the case of
the text renderer is a good idea. See also:
