[xep-support] line height with Symbol font

Hello,

I've noticed that using characters from the Symbol font causes an
increased distance between the baselines (see attached spacing.fo
and spacing.pdf).

Is this a bug or a feature? (XEP 3.6.2)

Using Ken's advice of line-stacking-strategy="font-height" helps here, too.

Cheers,
Oliver
