Sorry I disappeared for a bit, I was trying to finish up too many things at 
once and needed a break.

I have thought a bit about the performance issue - I attempted to convert 
everything before Build19, and the performance was better. However, the needed 
texture for the translators list was too high, which resulted in a black 
texture. So, I invented the RenderedText object to deal with that.

The problem here is that we render everything at once, and there are tons of 
rectangles needed for the lists. I can think of 2 strategies to improve 
performance:

1. If everything fits, give RenderedText only 1 rectangle with everything in it
2. Only parse the Lua scripts when each tab is loaded.

The messed up mixed fonts is a problem that we already have in trunk - it's the 
same as in the language selection menu. The underlying issue s that Arabic uses 
a bigger font size than Latin, and something is wrong with the hotspot 
calculation. I did quite a bit of dirty hacking to make this work in tables and 
lists, but this should be handled in the fit_line function, I guess.

I have addressed one of he comments, so this needs a quick test again to make 
sure that the Lua script won't crash.

I can't compile right now, so I'll wat for AppVeyor if nobody else gets around 
to it first.

True, not used any more, I have removed it.

Because of the center alignment, which the h1 function doesn't cater for.

I must admit that I did a quick copy/paste of some other code for that. 
Creating the unique_ptr directly doesn't work, because copy/assign is 
disallowed for this class.
