For our purpose, we need the ability to display legend items in-line with equal padding between one another UNTIL the legend items break to 2 lines. In which case, we need the legend items to display in a columnar layout (like Maxime74 mentioned; 3x3, 2x2, 3x2, 4x2, 4x1, etc.). For our use, this ensures the legend looks aesthetically pleasing as the chart is resized or as new data comes in (or out). Here is a Jing screencast walking through what I mean with one of our charts: https://screencast.com/t/KFHjAPpqO
The reason Highcharts doesn't work today is that it displays legend items in-line, ALWAYS. We like in-line behavior when the chart has one row of legend items, but not when it breaks to two lines.
Feel free to reach out - happy to discuss whenever.
