I think we can make it work, but there are some minor hurdles.  It is
a little brittle in my view to include auto-generated PNGs alongside
svn pngs because it makes cleaning hard (we currently have the same
problem in the _static dir with the mathtext pngs).  The other problem
is that when I went to implement your svg suggestion, which is a good
one (ditto for ps links), I bumped into some not implemented errors
since we don't have draw_tex for svg and some latex runtime problems
when I tried to build the ps since I don't have the right fonts.  All
of this can be worked around, but it will take a little work.  I have
to run now...

We could have a little extra meta data stored, tagging certain files
that should not be auto-generated for certain extensions....
Perhaps we should introduce a new plot directive option, much like
include-source, which  could be used to suppress auto-gen, or exclude
certain targets.

.. plot:: tex_unicode_demo.py
   :include-source:
   :no-autogen:

.. plot:: tex_unicode_demo.py
   :include-source:
   :exclude-backends: svg, gdk

I'll ponder this over the weekend.
