Certainly not. But yes, as "release-noted" the text-system
and text-measurement ("formatted" infos) have changed a lot.
Text-measurement in LC 7/8 is still unfinished and will change.

TMHO it is already pretty good for "perfect" fonts (which
has glyph paths) although it has moreover to serve "old"
fonts that are close to bitmap.

(That's why I currently don't expect text measurement to be
close to "correct" in all possible cases.)
