Does anyone know of a workaround for using a vertical colorbar with a horizontal title, when using the `Use Above Color Range` option (without going to horizontal legend or vertical title)? I’ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to insert a `\n`.

Using MathText improve the situation by a few pixels, but there is a bug to fix.

- Title should take into account the “Above” color for positioning
- Text entry should accept multiline and support `\n` as classic annotations do

the title above is: `$Very\ long\ text\ but\ this\ is\ still\ a\ bug\ to\ fix$`
