Ian:  Matplotlib's contour cannot do this (although I believe the 
underlying c code does have this capability).  I think it would be a 
useful addition.  For right now, however, your workaround is the best 
solution. 

PyNGL (http://www.pyngl.ucar.edu/Graphics/contour_grids.shtml) can 
contour triangular meshes, if you'd like to give that a try.
