Can I ask if this is legend graphics generated from the SLD definition - ie what is returned by the get legend graphics operation? Or is this something specific to KML generation?
There is a bit of a conflict of meaning here on the legend graphic operation side: - A client like uDig expects to see some kind of glyph, symbology or example indicating what the layer looks like; the layer already has a nice human readable name - so there is no reason to include that in the returned image. My understanding is map server starts to try and show a massive legend graphic when the SLD has several rules; on the assumption that the rules are defining categories of data (all of which are displayed in a single layer). We have gone to some trouble in udig to sort out the confusion when dealing with mapserver; trying to figure out a good area of the produced image to sample etc...
