I've just looked at the doc string of that function briefly, and I'm not
sure how I would use that to do filling.  I need to know the width a
text will take in the buffer, so that I know when to break the line and
start a new one.  Is it now possible to write a function like
`pixel-region-width' that would say how much space the text will occupy?

Given that the font used for that text is variable-width (and the region
possibly uses many fonts).  If that's possible, I'm all for moving eww
to use a proportional font by default.
