Aegisub renders the line as 200px to the right, but libjass renders it in the middle

Now if the style's MarginL was, say, 250, then the line is offset by 500px

Yes, the only properties parsed for Events are Style, Start, End, Layer and Text. So MarginL, MarginR and MarginV (and other style properties in general) are ignored.

The only workaround is that you have to make a separate style for each Dialogue that needs style overrides.
