When working on another bug, I noticed what I think might be an
inability to calculate widths and heights for specific fonts and -sizes,
though it might be that the screenlets drawing library simply calculates
from the specific font and size that is already set.
I don't have the time, but someone might look into whether my (limited)
understanding is correct, or whether some functionality should be added
to Drawing.py...
Best regards,
