You may find that it will be easier to create the covers outside of calibre. That's what I ended up doing. I posted the guts of a script which can handled any number of title elements using 'convert' from ImageMagick on page 30 of this thread. Then again, I am creating 13,500 individualized covers.
Since each element is created separately you can specify font, font sizes, color etc. and overlay everything on a background image.
This process slides around some of the limits of the plugin in dealing with long titles etc.
