Wheel off centre in fork

The front wheel on my bike is off-centre in my fork. I've checked the dishing (both by flipping the wheel and taking it to a shop) and the dishing is within .5 mm of perfect it seems. The wheel is true otherwise.

So how much off-centre is normal for a high-end bike? Is ~2 mm an issue to justify a return to the manufacturer?

This translates into a ~4mm difference in clearance at the sides of the fork, which is visually noticeable and perhaps a bummer for installing larger tires.

I also wonder: would such a small bit of displacement from centre affect handling? At speed? When riding without hands?
