   The temporal bar chart currently works similar to how the temporal line chart does, i.e. it shows the x-axis ticks on a linear scale as opposed to treating them as categories. This means that end-of-month data (e.g. 2012-12-31) will be displayed very close the the next start-of-month/year tick (2013-01-01). We're planning on adding a configuration option for forcing the x-axis to be categorical, and this should solve this problem for the majority of use cases. Whether or not this should be the default for bar charts is still being debated, but especially when a time grain is being applied, I assume forced categorical ticks would be the expected behavior.
