    Is this something that 'font measure' and multiplying the
    height their by number of \n's doesn't satisfy? However, I
    like this because it adds a C API and all - very useful. Needs
    a TIP I think.

    Jeff, would you like to co-author the necessary TIP?

    I still think could be useful. I'm going to TIP this up for 8.5.
