Yeah, I've went through this for a long time in Mapnik ;)
Have spent lot of ideas and time on this project.

The developers should have a look at Mapnik's code. There is a
generic implementation, which does perfect multiline labeling.

Actually, I don't have money to pay the developers. But I know some
corporations, which would like to switch from ArcGIS to QGIS to save
money on license costs. But since those are into cartography, QGIS
isn't really useful for them right now. I might convince them to
spend some money on QGIS, but I bet, the answer will be "no" :(
