I think, for me, the issue is that graphics standards, interfaces and file formats change quite rapidly compared with implementations of mathematical structures. I'm sure at at some stage Axiom could do all this fine but, over the years, screen resolutions, mouse interfaces and so on change , so now a tiny movement of the mouse makes the plot move off the screen so fast that it can't be found again. For me the best solution would be to get all this stuff that can change (perhaps X-window won't be used in the future?) and that depends on what computer, operating system, etc. into some external code or library that is regularly maintained by graphics experts. Would your code help with this? Does it have a set of well defined external interfaces? Does it require a custom render engine and so on?
