The main problem for me is that I do not use Windows
and I do not know well MS-Windows API and undocumented
behavior. Working on GTWVT I'm making tests with WINE
but I'm never sure when I want to check some detail
behavior which is not documented that I see real MS-Windows
results or only WINE emulation side effects.
Here to well redesign GTWVT internals I should make some
tests on real MS-Windows machine to be sure that I choose
correct implementation.

I cannot promise but I'll try to find some time to implement it.

Please remember that in some GTs we are not able to protect
against terminal resizing from Harbour application so such
situations will always happen and support for dynamic font
resizing is rather seldom and will exist only in GUI GTs.
