Stefan, To reply more directly to your proposal now that I have thought about it more: although I see the logic in it, I don't see much gain from your Nx2 idea; it not very hard to simply write P.plot(z[:,0], z[:,1]). Furthermore, implementing your idea would not conflict with present behavior, but it would interfere with an alternative version of fancy argument handling that I think would be much more generally useful.
