DisplayText used for converting strings and text into forms,
which then can be used to blit on other forms.

It used sparsely, mostly in order to display simple text in number of old  
examples.

In system there are already plenty of ways to display text, without using  
an intermediate string->form conversion, which is DisplayText.
Ultimately, we should always use canvas(es) to display text, not forms or  
low-level DisplayObject(s).
