Embedded views vs view canvas: clipping css translated transforms

I am attempting to overcome an odd behavior related to styles respected by view canvas instances.

I have some views where I use a style transform: translate(-Xpx, -Ypx) such that the positioning anchor for the embed is the center of an icon/object, rather than the top/left of the embedded view. This works fine with a regular embedded view so long as the embed includes overflow: visible such as this:
image

However, when these are instantiated inside a view canvas instance, they get clipped even with view canvas properties instances.[this].style.overflow: visible or defaultStyle.overflow: visible. Here's the same view but via a view canvas instance:

image

Is that expected behavior?

More forum sleuthing makes me think it's a manifestation of bug [IGN-9406] as described by @cmallonee here [IGN-9406] Scroll-bar/Overflow Frustrations on Perspective View Canvas - #9 by cmallonee
