Not sure on this whether we should update the Component font's 
transform. As this issue is primarily for html text in tooltip (ie it 
does not occur if tooltip uses normal text) which means 
BasicHTML.updateRenderer()
has already updated the html text ('s span) due to GC change, so only 
thing we can do is to update the rectangle size to contain the updated text.
