Eh ... when tex typesets a paragraph, all input is already converted to
lists and macro expansion is gone. So, bbox info should come from the list
to dvi pass [or maybe from within the paragraph builder]. Keep in mind that
f i e t s [bicycle] is not just 5 chars, but becomes fi e t s and that at
some point the hyphenation engine pops in too. No way to hyphenate
\hbox{f}\hbox{i}...\hbox{s}.
