MathJax makes the legend scroll unnecessarily

I get a scrollbar when my legend includes mathjax. In this case it's not catastrophic, but in another example, I just had to drop the mathjax altogether because the legend names ended up blank if they included any mathjax.

Oh MathJax

[rreusser]

Yeah, I'm assuming that it's because of asynchronous measuring/rendering passes. I mainly raise this because I feel like it's an argument in favor of KaTeX if the support ever becomes viable.

[etpinard]

Yeah. We've been wanting to switch over to KaTeX for about two years now.

I wonder how hard that would be?

[rreusser]

I can only imagine a lot of the work would be ripping out complicated async handling of everyithng. Katex is effectively synchronous, right? Full support and getting it to play well with everything could be nontrivial though.

Most likely fixed as part of #2426
