What I'm _really_ after is what the behavior should be when AbiWord
cannot render what it's been asked to do. There are at least 2 or 3
bugs related to this.
What happens when margins are so close that long words do not fit?
Presently, I think we just try to draw stuff, even if it doesn't fit
on the page, and leave the clipping to the toolkit.
