- * Currently this is a compound recursion for textblocks:
- * markSizeChange -> updateReference -> queueResize -> markSizeChange
- * One way to see it is as a widget tree coverage problem. i.e. to cover all
- * the nodes that need a resize when a float changes its size.
- * The coverage logic of it is shared between resize code and mark code (here).
- * 
- * This implementation works for all the test cases so far. It relies on the
- * fact that Widget::queueResize should be called whenever a widget changes its
- * size. When "SizeChanged" is true, we notify the parent, when not, just the
- * following textblocks.
