I've had the same problem with regular TextMorphs, which mostly ended up 
going away when I put the TextMorphs into tables.

For instance, you can do this as a test:

Make a RectangleMorph, set to table layout, hResizing=shrinkwrap, 
vResizing=shrinkWrap.

Embed a PluggableTextMorph, hResizing=spacefill, vResizing=spacefill

This should work OK. Perhaps you need to use table layout in your example.
