I'd rather not use 16.12 to test at this late time - how about master?

the line that the text covers (taking into account cells width and height), then \
passes this rectangle to the drawText(QRect, flags, text) call.
Qt detects if the selected font does not offer all characters in the text, and \
substitutes individual characters with a different font. Due to designer choices, the \
same font point size does not lead to same pixel height (or ascent size) in all \
fonts, so the substituted characters might be larger than the characters from the \
primary font.
Using a rectangle causes Qt to position glyphs relative to the bounding box of the \
text, instead of anchored to the baseline.
This patch uses a pixel position instead of a rectangle to draw the text, taking into \
account only the baseline of the primary font.
I have added all "frameworks" developers to increase possible test \
coverage.</pre> </td>
