Rendering text along an elliptic curve or circular arc

I can't seem to find any information on this anywhere:

Is it possible to have a piece of text (TextBlock or Label) rendered along an elliptic path or circular arc Perhaps even a Bezier spline

    You could use FormattedText.BuildGeometry.
    Once you have a geometry, you apply any transform you want.
    This would involve some work on your part though.

    It is not possible to put text along a path in WPF v1. Maybe in the next version ...

    Thanks. I thought I had seen something at PDC05, but I guess I'm hallucinating.
