Actually I'm happy to donate fees if someone feels awesomely fluent at 
developing such a component in any solid way that does not involve 
in-canvas drawing for iterating to fit the text size to any given height 
provided for the rounded-corner rectangle ... as far as I'm aware you 
cannot reliably fit text to a given height without iterating off-canvas 
because "font sizes" aren't fully telling.
