Because the Widget uses XTextExtents to figure out how big text chunks
are (which makes sense, since they could be in any font). Like I say,
this should be faster in 0.9, since it won't have to do so much
parsing, since I will be handling plaintext documents correctly, since
annotation links will be handled separately from the document text
itself. I think.
