I notice the alignment problem.
But it looks like you are close.
On my machine (win32), the 'enter' key didn't work either. It works like a
backspace. That sounds like what Matthias reported.

Typo: "plain text" was meant to be "math text"
Now I remember what really bothered me about this widget, and it
wasn't just the usetex problem. The problem is that mpl has three
different vertical alignment methods for text: top, bottom and center.
None of them are right for a text box: you want baseline. Try typing
"thinking" into the text box and watch what happens when you add and
remove the "g". We do need to support baseline alignment for text, so
if someone has an interest in adding this it would be a very useful
feature, not just for a text box for for text alignment (eg tick
labels) in general.
See the image of the "g" at
http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/docs/glyphs/glyphs-3.html
for a visual representation -- hwat I am calling the "baseline" they
refer to as the "origin" in that graph. Our default alignment should
be "origin" or "baseline" but we don't have support for that.
