If X or Y contains missing values, _you_ supplied missing values as the 
'lims' argument and it will be those missing values that are reported.

I do not see how you expect to be able to do density estimation with 
missing values: they are unknown and so no part of the answer is known. If 
you are prepared to omit them, you can do so but my software (if this is 
indeed kde2d from package MASS, uncredited) does not make such arbitrary 
choices for you.

That is not what the only kde2d function I know of does.
