Note that it doesn't cause bloat because GtkLabel is basically a
display engine for PangoLayout, and PangoLayout already supports this.

So GtkLabel just does:

 layout = pango_layout_new ();
 pango_layout_set_text ("whatever");

And in its expose handler:

 gdk_draw_layout (drawable, gc, layout);

More or less.
