We have had issues in the past with legend values from column 1 overflowing into column 2. For instance, issue #899 was fixed by PR #914 which implemented a maximum character limit for legend names. That solution could produce misleading views, such as those described in #1306.
The solution from this PR is to implement a clipping mask for column 1, avoiding the complication of limiting the string size. Column 2 already has similar behaviour because the SVG element of the legend itself performs the clipping.
Closes #1306
