I guess all I'm really asking for is that there should a trivial
receipe to get back the old functionality.  E.g., if somebody tells
me: just redo the auto-layout on top of the multi-line label widget, I
won't be really happy, since I don't have time right now to make such
a (non-trivial) change.  But if somebody tells me: just use the
magic_label_with_auto_layout() widget, then it won't be a problem at
all... ;-)

That's neat indeed!
