Sorry this one fell between the cracks. I'll get right on it.

Didn't realize there was a beta update. The issue seems to have been fixed. Sorry for bumping.
Doesn't look fixed to me; I just tested on 1323 and there are two problems.

1) The maptext position is incorrect. (This was a fairly easy fix.)
2) The maptext bounds aren't properly accounted for, so it gets cut off. (This is a bit tougher but I have a TODO note for it, so I can get to that tomorrow.)
In response to Lummox JR
Ahh. The issue I was having in the previous version was the maptext not appearing period on atoms with KEEP_TOGETHER. There was also an issue with clients that controlled a mob that had KEEP_TOGETHER on with certain screen objects becoming completely opaque if they had a transparent glow effect on them. Both have been fixed in the most recent build.
