Hello,

I have discovered multi-level fontification of sub and superscripts. It
is a great idea. I used to use magic-latex-buffer previously to
accomplish the same.

However it seems slightly broken. While the scaling of the text defined
in the face stacks correctly the displacement doesn't!

It gets calculated from the base line. This means that if I write
$x_{y_{z}}$ with multi-line mode then $z$ is not any lower than y.

Similarly in the case $x^{y^{z}}$ z is not higher than y.

In both cases they are only scaled smaller, but this is only because the
height is controlled by a different parameter in a different way.

Another moment when this incorrect behavior is evident is if one writes
$x^y_z$. In this case z is MUCH higher than y because it is actually
displaced w.r.t the level of x and not y. Similarly for $x_y^z$.

Thanks for your time and patience! I really appreciate the fantastic
piece of software you wrote. I have tried many LaTeX editors and AucTeX
is by far the best way to write.

I am attaching a minimal .tex example file and a screenshot.
