Well, I don't know anything that could do the right thing
for Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, etc.  In fact I don't know what
the right thing is for most world languages.  But from the
little I know, if Pango (or some other lib) does not provide
routines for breaking text to individual graphems that make
sense placed vertically, this will be hard.  Unless the
strings to display are constant and can be broken by
translators -- and then you will have the formatting
embedded and thus no need to worry about iterations.
