> The current implementation for setting the appearance of content that is added to a multiline text box is incorrect in a number of ways:
> * Doesn't position the start of the text in the correct location
> * Incorrectly uses font size '0' instead of auto-sizing the font
> * Doesn't break up very long lines
> * If the font size is very large, then the next line is started too close to the previous line.
