 * Calling LyXText::getFont is slow. While rebreaking we scan a
 * paragraph from left to right calling getFont for every char.  This
 * simple class address this problem by hidding an optimization trick
 * (not mine btw -AB): the font is reused in the whole font span.  The
 * class handles transparently the "hidden" (not part of the fontlist)
 * label font (as getFont does).
