[R] Text adjustment outside (0,1)

[BXC (Bendix Carstensen)]

Funnily enough, it seems that adjustment of text in the verical
direction is more flexible than in the horizontal. Horizontal
adjustment parameters, seem to be set to the closest of 0 and 1
if they fall outside (0,1). Try e.g.:

plot(0:1,0:1)
for (a in seq(-5,5,0.5) ) text(0.5, 0.5, "Y", adj=c(0,a), cex=2, col="red" )
for (a in seq(-5,5,0.5) ) text(0.5, 0.5, "X", adj=c(a,0), cex=2, col="blue"
)

Any particular reason for this restriction in the horizontal direction?
