Comment (by pulkomandy):
I wonder how we can compute something that works for all fonts and font
sizes.
For a font, we know the "baseline", which is usually just below the
characters, and we know "ascents" and "descents" height (that is, the size
of things that can go above or below the baseline). But, this does not
give us a way to find the vertical "center" of the font.
What should it be aligned with anyway? Center bar of H? Middle of o or
central bar of e? In the middle between baseline and ascents?
