I am trying to define a class Tab which would be used as
a special Character and would be placed in an LRComposition
with other Character instances  (see src/examples/preview/main.c)
Tab stops would be defined at specific horizontal locations.  

The problem is the width of a Tab instance is dependent on its
Horizontal position in the LRComposition.  For instance if a 
Tab is placed at 2 inch and the Tab instances location is 1.5 inch, 
the Tab's width would be (2 inch - 1.5 inch) = .5 inch.

When the LRCompositor requests the Tab's width, via ::request,
the horizontal location is unknown.

Any feedback on how Tab could be implemented would be appreciated.
