Well I discussed this with Kevin yesterday, and it appears that it is 
"intended" behavior.

We're not using traditional printer's points, but instead the extra 
'buffer space' around exported raster images is intentional and meant 
to prevent clipping. However, one can make use of the new Border field 
to change this value (and even put in a negative border number to clip 
a graphic).

Hope that helps,
