I was over-complicating things.  The solution is much simpler and all
tools are already on board.  Dmitry just has to insert his overlays
where he wants them and run `window-text-pixel-size' over that window.
If the text including the overlays fits he's done.  Otherwise, he has to
remove the overlays and proceed with whatever alternate solution he has.
No hands needed.
