Well, not any *nice* ones.... ;)

Here's the output of the test for it. It's sort ugly, but it shows that the
text is rendered at a fixed size (on the display) and pixel aligned while
still being embedded in the 3D scene and mixed with other geometry.

Let me know if you have questions about it / what it does and I'll be happy
to clear anything up.
