If fixedLineHeight is false, then this is computed automatically.

If common practice is to leave this true, then there might be a benefit 
from setting textHeight each time textSize is changed.  Even though it 
should be generally known, it can still jump up and bite somebody.

(There is a straightforward dataflow style to resolving this but it may 
seem simple in only my mind.)
