Another update, I guess I love to talk to myself.

I got the drawing part done as follows:


         CALayer  *aLayer = [CALayer layer];
         NSRect r = [self.layoutManager boundingRectForGlyphRange: aRange 
inTextContainer: self.textContainer];

         aLayer.backgroundColor = CGColorCreateGenericRGB (0.2, 0.2, 0.2, 0.2); 
        // obviously this will be changed to something nicer
         aLayer.frame = r;
         aLayer.cornerRadius = 6.0f;
         
         [self.layer addSublayer: aLayer];


There are two problems:

1. the y-location of the layer that is drawn is wrong, I think it has to do 
with the coordinates being flipped
2. when the range contains a line break, I get the rect for two whole lines, 
not just the glyphs.
