Another approach would be to restrict the chart area to the graph one.
But I'm not sure that's something we want. That's why it's currently
possible to move a chart outside of the visible area (and not a lack of
testing...).

(FWIW, The restriction to the visible area exists in OOo calc 2.3 (Along
with a crash when you play to much with graph object position). I don't
know how behaves Excel).
