There is an API for this, but unfortunately it's about 10 times slower
than the standard text drawing calls and so we can't use it (with
fields with a lot of style changes, you get to watch individual words
draw, and live scrolling is pretty much unusable).
It's certainly possible for Apple to fix this, but for whatever reason
they haven't. You do get antialiasing with larger text fonts now, but
it's QD antialiasing and doesn't look the same as Quartz anti-aliasing
(albeit being much faster). If that's not good enough, I'm afraid
you'll just have to wait for Apple to finish OS X and the Carbon API.
