The Layers above VCL are external Applications for OLE. I see no way how they
should remember that. I also do not see how this should help when WE need to
play the MetaFile. I also see no reason for guessing.

Does the MetaFile action created when calling DrawText() not contain all
necessary information to record the current text output and to replay it? If
Yes, why is it going wrong? If not, this is a design error (maybe not in our
MetaFile, but in mtf as file format (?).

At least fo our MetaFiles we should somehow add that needed information to the
MetaFiles then; maybe in a MetaFileComment, as we already do with other infos.
This would at least solve the problem for MetaFiles we created ourselves (and
would be backward compatible, too). Shouldn't that be the fix to do...?
