Rich text is supported in SkiaSharp with RichTextKit

RichTextKit is very good and supports most of the required text processing features that will be needed. BiDi, styling, layout, wrapping, and more.

@mattleibow I'll add that to my to-do list.

I wonder if we could do a fork of RichTextKit that would use System.Graphics. So all the calculation is Xplat, but could still use the native versions without requiring Skia.

You won't need to use RichTextKit if you are using CoreGraphics since it already has a text engine (CoreText I think) so you only need it for SkiaSharp backends.
