The attached doc (DCBugs.odt) shows some kerning problems I ran into, using the
Times New Roman font with drop caps. When the letter after the drop cap is 'a',
the kerning sometimes allows the two glyphs to overlap, as (IMHO) they should,
but the rendering of the 'a' glyph wipes out the overlapping part of the drop
cap (which, IMHO, it shouldn't). More details are in the document itself.

This is only P4, and probably should get "while you're in the code" status.  It
would be P5, since it's only about "pretty", but that's all that drop caps are
about: "pretty".

(BTW, would anybody like to create a tracking issue for drop cap issues, or like
me to do it? While pre-scanning for duplicate issues, I found more than a dozen
P3 and P4, 3.x, OO.later issues related to drop caps, and I only looked at the
ones I thought might be relevant.)
