Right now it's used in the code that clips to the exact bounds of a
string, if a string's overhangs are already drawn.

I couldn't find a cleaner way to do this, and that situation is rare, so
I think the performance problems will usually be avoided.

Well, on every other platform Meta is on the alt on the users' keyboard.
Emacs in general doesn't conform to the platform expectations WRT to key
bindings, so I think being consistent with Emacs on other platforms is
more important here.

But in the end, it's your call.  Thanks.
