best effort fit #11

I've found that long words that have a large font size get left out if removeOverflowing is set to true. The problem is, those words are the most important words. I'd rather see smaller words get left out than bigger words. It would be nice to see a feature that does a best-effort fit of words based on weight within the height/width constraints of the box.

Unfortunately I'm not the author of the algorithm, and I don't have time to review it, any improvement is really welcomed.
