Okay, I think I've figured out my problem with the "align bottom edges" thing, particularly with text.  It's a little bit "duh," actually. :redface:

Here's what I started with:

Then I aligned the bottom edges, and got this:

whereupon I realized the bottom edges were aligned perfectly...it's just that I wasn't counting the bottom of the "y" as the bottom edge - I was expecting the program to know it was supposed to hang down below the baseline. So, in that, I'm a dork. :redface:

As proof, if I take the "y" out I get this:

However, I still don't understand why, if I then hit "distribute left edges," I get this:

How are those evenly distributed left edges? ::is still mystified, about that at least::
