Pierre,

The scipy dependency is unfortunately a deal breaker for matplotlib. I'm
not a core dev, but typically you have a work around the dependency in some
way (e.g., make the user specify the KDE for each dataset).

Also, the statsmodels project has this functionality:
http://statsmodels.sourceforge.net/devel/generated/statsmodels.graphics.boxplots.violinplot.html#statsmodels.graphics.boxplots.violinplot

Perhaps your ideas and approach could be used to improve
their implementation.
