I wonder.
1. this test ought to be headful, since the font metrics are involved
2. it might be better to develop a wider test that verifies that the caret (at 
least in the case of a single caret) is always visible, there is no dead space 
beyond the end/beginning of text when resized, using all node orientations, 
using a number of test strings, and so on.

There might be some limited value in testing the exact scenario (to avoid 
tripping over the same condition again), but I think < plug> it's a kind of 
situation the monkey tester was developed to address.  I am not saying MT is a 
panacea, but it did allow me to test a number of weird scenarios right away </

What do you think?
