I've been playing with some of the projections in matplotlib,
recently, and have some questions/noticed some odd behavior:

1. Is there any way to activate a projection mode with the pyplot
interface other than the subplot(111,projection='whatever') method a
la /examples/api/custom_projection_example.py ?  Along these same
lines, is the projection feature documented in greater detail
somewhere?  About everything I've figured out has come from
custom_projection_example.py ...

2. I have a skymap I would like to plot using a particular projection
- what I've been doing so far is specifying x and y coordinates using
mgrid and calling contourf(x,y,data,100) to approximate this.  But
what I'd rather do is something like
imshow(data,extent=[-pi,pi,-pi/2,pi/2]) ... when I call that with a
projection axis activated, the projection isn't honored - the image
just appears as a regular square box.  Is there any way to get imshow
to respect the projection?
