I was thinking about it and I think that I could add two more
properties to the text element:

Brush
BoundingRectPen

They would allow to fill a rectangular area bellow it and draw a
bounding rectangle, but that's not really a solution for the generic
problem of measuring text which is something that cannot be perfectly
done in vectorial images.

Do you have a better idea?
