OK, that is a valid reason! I vaguely remember some problems with that in the 
past,
though haven't experienced any of that in a long time (just tested 'Save File', 
and I've
been regularly using 'Configure Subplots'). But this is probably a case where a
Warning might not keep all users from filing a bug. :-(
The QT4Agg backend has its ups as well, though there still seem to be some 
quirks,
too (e.g. the zoom rectangle only shows up with the left and lower border); I 
will probably
become a fan of the line configuration tool that allows you to switch back to 
linear from a
log axis scale (in the command line there seems to be no return from 
plt.semilogy() or
plt.loglog())!

Cheers,
                                                Derek
