			* vlad: nope, this is an entirely un-accessability-non-graphical-browser-friendly way to draw text. The rationale, however, is that canvas as a whole has fallback when canvas isn't available, because even the graphics you draw may have just as much or more meaning than any text. There are plenty of ways to get around having a text-drawing API, they're just painful and annoying, but not impossible -- which means someone will wrap it in some JS and make it easy, just possibly slow. So if people are going to do it anyway, we may as well provide the API and make everyone happy.
