Hi Eric,

In general I'm all for it - simplicity is good. Just make sure that it 
doesn't break the spine placement code (e.g. 
examples/pylab_demo/spine_placement_demo.py ) -- I remember those method 
names from the time when I was working on the spines. I don't remember 
any deep issues, but it's long enough ago now that I don't remember the 
details.

Thanks,
Andrew
