I'm happy to be wrong (especially because then we don't have any work
to do) but I don't see the tight bounding box as inconsistent with
Agg's behavior.  I agree that the *.ps output should be consistent
with the Agg png behavior since neither make a claim to clip the image
to the visible elements.  But *.eps implies a bounding box, it might
make sense to offer a bounding box that is reduced to the visible
elements.

I certainly don't feel strongly, nor do I think it would be terribly
hard to do.....
