Steven,

Thanks for the reply, I'd definitely like to get something working for
plots. I just did a quick test, but I wasn't able to see an image/png tag
in display_data when I ran the following:

using Gadfly
plot(x=[1:10], y=[1:10], Geom.point)

Do I need to explicitly push the image/png mime type onto the display
stack? (I'm not entirely up to speed on the display() machinery). All I saw
for the above command was text/html. Is it just Gadfly that doesn't support
pngs this way?
Thanks.

-Jacob
