Ah, I think understand what you're looking for now.  You want the  
pylab toolbar to stop panning when you reach the end of the data  
range instead of continuing over into an empty area.  Does that sound  
right to you?

I believe you may have been asking the wrong question.  ;-)

Based on my understanding of things it should be possible to add this  
feature to the toolbar, assuming one can easily determine the  
bounding box of the plot in axes coordinates.  One of the devs might  
be able to implement it for you, although I obviously cannot speak  
for them.
