This SVG is apparently clipping in the WRONG place on preview.

However, having checked the viewbox in Inkscape and reducing the size of the file considerably from the original, I am puzzled as to why the clipping is wrong.
It would be nice to have a long term fix for issues like this, such as enforcing certain standards when SVG files are originally uploaded. Invalid SVG''s files shouldn't be allowed to upload.
