Good idea, makes sense for big text – my captions are only 8pt, there 10 
layers are already a lot, and the randomness doesn’t make a difference.

For titles, it would be nice to apply lmt_poisson to arbitrary paths.

I wonder what’s possible if we don’t _draw_ lmt_outline but use it as a 
base for more fun…
