Yes, that's my problem. I need to know how far down from the baseline
the font will extend. Currently I have to render every glyph of interest
first, check how far, and then render them all again so I can align them
correctly.

That is, I'd like to know the maximum descent without having to call
Render_Glyph first on all glyphs.
