First draft:

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/line-height-129.html

http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/line-height-129.xht

I will be eventually submitting such test (and others to come) into CSS 
2.1 test suite. I have to deal with a strange and mysterious color issue
