EXHIBIT: Some bubbles get drawn off-screen / truncated

[GoogleCodeExporter]

 For some bubbles rendered by SimileAjax.Graphics.createBubbleForPoint, a
disproportionately huge div gets built.

Example: I ask for a 400 by 160 pixel bubble, and the div generated to hold
it ends up 473 by 3316040 pixels instead, which renders either as just the
bubble "handle", if the top of the div was positioned off-screen above the
viewport, or as a bubble whose bottom part is truncated, if it was the
bottom part that ended up off-screen.

A test case that shows this phenomenon is available here; click "LISTA" and
"Linköping" (in the tile view) for an example of truncated-below bubbles,
and "Budapest" or "Verbania" for an example of just-a-handle (truncated above):
