The drawing would be more efficient regardless of the underlying BLF
rendering due to the batching. The text editor changes aren't really
dependent on the other changes.
My problem is that the text editor (text_draw.c) is starting to diverge
in inconvenient ways.

After digging into this problem a bit I got frustrated. The new
blf_font_draw_mono code determines how much wide text is while drawing it,
which isn't really compatible with batching up as much text as possible
before drawing it.
I guess I won't be able to sort this out in 45 minutes like I'd
This is what I'm talking about. The multicolumn character feature modifies
code that has a basic design flaw. I've fixed that flaw already, but it
isn't in trunk. I'm trying to puzzle out how to fix it again, but I need
to make sure I'm not stomping on any toes.

Hi Jason,
The multi-column character support is what I've implemented.
If your change breaks something, I maybe can help you to fix it.
Anyway, I'm not planning to change the text editor drastically in the
near future.

Great. I did manage to merge the two versions after a lot of thought.
However, I need to spend some time refining and testing it before I commit
any changes.

During the last GSoC I made some modifications to the text editor so that
it would batch text before drawing it instead of drawing on character at a
time. (Since I was removing immediate mode calls from swiss-cheese,
sending one character at a time as WAY too much overhead.)
The recent changes
Would this also include the more efficient BLF rendering? I'm guessing the
text editor changes are dependent on that? I'd really love to see BLF
getting away from glBegin/glEnd.
