WebDrawingArea is still a little WIP.

It was something I suggested to Benoit a few years ago and he then made an
initial basic control.
I did start to make a Paint.Text but iirc it got complicated as it then
needed a Paint.Font property.

(has a little internet search....)
Aah, I made a merge request on 30 Sept 2022 but my code probably sucked.
