asgallant,

Thanks for the reply.  I do have a reliable method (for now) of
identifying the rect element within the svg/vml element (remember,
this visualization falls back to vml for IE 7/8 so you have to check
for "g->rect" AND group->rect to cover supported browsers).  I've
wrapped the visualization in a GWT class since it's not officially
available yet in GWT so I've done the work mostly within GWT/Java
rather than having to add the jQuery requirement (and additional
footprint).  It's just that it's a hack that is sensitive to
structural changes within the svg/vml so a new release could break
it.  I've also set it up so it falls back to a div that floats on top
to hide it but, since the addition of the min/max values, the mask div
covers up a portion of the tip of South America in order to
effectively hide the legend.  Another more general solution would be
to provide a method within the API that reliably returns the element
so a user could have a variety of options (hide it all, hide the
numbers, manipulate the numbers, move it to another location, etc).

Thanks for the suggestion on the tooltip.  That's a good workaround.
