This isn't correct in general. The layout manager works in text
container coordinates, which are offset from text view coordinates by
the text view's textContainerOrigin. In many cases the
textContainerOrigin will be {0, 0}, but you should not rely on this
in general. The sample code should demonstrate this conversion process.
