Description
Not sure if we have an open issue for this but it would be great to have more-automatic text positioning to avoid text overlapping on e.g. scatters.

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Begin by tracing how text is positioned for scatter plots, then define the overlap cases and expected behavior before identifying the relevant implementation and tests; done means text labels avoid overlap without breaking existing scatter rendering.
