Topics: text autorange auto-range autoscale auto-scale

Just wondering if "text" graph objects should be included in auto-ranging.  For example,

text(5,5,"hello")

opens a new figure window, but the text isn't included within the view. The text is only one point, so auto-ranging might have to default to a width of one, but Octave could pick that one point (5,5) as the center of the range.

Does Matlab autoscale to include text objects?

I suppose it might be nice to implement this if it isn't too difficult.  The issue will be finding the position property and extracting the x, y, z information before proceeding with the rest of the algorithm.
