Bumping into this old issue. I'm having the same problem here.
When drawing a polygon across the anti-meridian, what I would like to get from Leaflet is a multi-polygon whose bounds stay within [0, 180]. However, all I can get is a simple polygon with bounds greater than 180.
This doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere in the docs.
Is there a way to get Leaflet to return a multi-polygon with bounds within [0, 180] when drawing across the anti-meridian? Is there a plugin that does this? I've seen documentation about this regarding Leaflet "core", but nothing covering user-drawn shapes in Leaflet.Draw.
Apologies if this documentation exists (or if this should be in the Leaflet queue instead of the leaflet draw queue), but I didn't find it on the main documentation page. It appears that Leaflet uses Latitudes greater than 180º or less than -180º when a user scrolls past the anti-meridian / Dateline depending on the direction of the scroll. It would be useful to state this explicitly in the documentation. It didn't occur to us that we'd get a Longitude of 225 or -300 from Leaflet.
thanks
