No, I hadn't seen this.  And argh!, I wish I had *before* I had coded
up something that met my needs.  I hate to see a duplication of effort
and would love to see more of your matplotlib extensions moved into
matplotlib itself.  Having said that, I now have a patch that
accomplishes what I want and (now) keeps our unit tests passing. I've
also pretty much expended all the time I have for matplotlib
development in the short term.  So if one of the other devs is
interested, awesome.  But for me at this point, I can't go study yet
more code when I have something IMO ready to check in.
