I know about that but at the time decided against any change based on
the text rise. Here are my reasons:

- the underline should follow the baseline otherwise mixing normal text
and superscript would cause a discontinuity. I didn't consider the
subscript as it doesn't have much sense mixing it with underline text;
the result would be probably stroke text. For specialized work the
customizable Chunk.setUnderline() can always be used.

- about the background I'm neutral and as such I didn't touch it. Either
way will have problems and I think that the background should be set
elsewhere, in a table cell for example (unless the user wants a mosaic
effect when the fonts sizes are not the same).

Best Regards,
Paulo Soares
