259 - Positionable Texts

Give sliders for the different Text positions so that we're not bound to having the Texts in the same position, every time.

In the screenshot, it would be nice to be able to move the name down to line up with the border of my action bars or put my health under my name.

Two rows of text on the health bar are very popular on healing frames these days, and this seems like the easiest way to lay that out. (And I've been having trouble with the \n technique.)

Having an option to have the text left/center/right justifiable would be nice, as well! (I.E. it controls which way the text grows/shrinks, from the left, from the right, or evenly on both sides.)

Bump back again, had to force repack for a LibDogTag issue.

Edited to make it generic to all texts not just DogTags becuase the positioning code is in core.

You can do the second request already. Just put a linebreak (via pressing 'enter') in your dogtag.

The first request can be tweaked by using blank lines, and the method mentioned above, but I do agree it would be a nice addition overall. X/Y offset for text would be cool.
