No, we just override the metrics, which claims unreasonably large height.

We can easily clip the glyph, yes. I don't know how legible will the result be. Transformation matrices is not something I'd love to use here. Eventually, we need to see how many characters, if any, exhibit this problem. Maybe the issue is minor.
