Thanks for the patch, I reviewed it and it looks good, but I have 1
comment, and one thing I'm not entirely sure about.

Comment: DRAW_FORMAT_SPEC should probably be named DRAW_FORMAT_DASHED.

As for what I'm not sure of:
Since underline, dashed-line, and in the future, squiggly-line, can't
co-exist (or at least shouldn't), it makes sense (to me) that all the
colours will be shared among all the underlines, and that we'll have an
enum defining the underline style. This is neater, and also, this will
let us easily extend dashed-line and squiggly-line to work with
underline2 (but not a must).

==> There are use case which requires multiple lines together.   Strikeout 
uses  line with different height offset.
For Example, A underlined, Strike out word with Wrong spell will have 3 
lines and all three can co-exist  with different colors.
But I agree your point about Evas Line drawing optimization.

Bottom line, I suggest keeping it internally in an enum instead of a
couple of booleans so the structure will be nicer, what do you think?


Also, please add related tests to evas's test infrastructure
(src/tests/evas_test_textblock.c).

Thanks,
Tom.
