Yes, I understand that. Canvas 2d text still needs to be able to do
things like font fallback, shaping, bidi, etc, etc, etc. last I checked.
Oh, the rendering isn't thread safe either?
Right. The rendering involves access to style data structures that are
not threadsafe. It involves caching shaped textruns and such; that
cache is not threadsafe. The actual shaper may or may not be
threadsafe. The bidi code is not threadsafe.
These are all solvable issues... on some timescale. ;)
