The workaround you proposed does not fix the underlying issues in 
CompositionScanner. It makes things worse. I just argued with readability
to clarify how one could discover the actual issue.

I will add more commentary to it now.

It is a problem simply because it is an artificial limitation of a very
basic functionality, namely getting a graphic object adapted to the
exact length of a text - it seems silly to me to have to notice
programmers that 'sorry, it is impossible if the text is too short'

Now if what I proposed is not considered a fix only because of
readability (and not because it does not work), well please just rename
or refactor the relevant methods to fix the readability issue -
functionality is more important than readability.
