looks good to me, but I think hindenburg should ack it (might want to add him to \
reviewers)

break-word;">When Konsole draws a line of text, it first computes the rectangle of \
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 &quot;frameworks&quot; developers to increase possible test \
coverage.</pre>  </td>
