I don't think this needs its own class. Just make GetStringWidth a free-standing
function under gfx.

If everyone is okay to define gfx::GetStringWidth(), I'll remove LayoutText
class.

By the way, in that case, is it okay to define gfx::GetStringWidth() in
layout_text.h?
If you'd like to define the function in another file (or another name), please
let me know.

Done.

+ public:
+  // Returns the number of horizontal pixels needed to display the specified
+  // |text| with |font_list|.
+  static int GetStringWidth(const base::string16& text,
+                            const FontList& font_list);
+
+ private:
+  DISALLOW_COPY_AND_ASSIGN(LayoutText);
+};
+
+}  // namespace gfx
+
+#endif  // UI_GFX_LAYOUT_TEXT_H_
