I think the pretty-fying done in the Colorbar class will make this
harder; at least, twiny on an existing colorbar doesn't work
(overwrites original ticks); having two colorbars works fine but
wastes space; and adding a spine had surprising side-effects (changed
the color range!).
I would guess that you want a custom Colorbar class, with a different
offset for a second set of ticks.
note that in colorbar.py, there's some code specific to CountourSets.

Greetings.
I am making some contour plots and in my field for this particular
value, there are two widely used units. As such, it is very useful
to have both units listed on the colorbar. To clarify: the
colorbar's normal ticks would be facing to the right and labeled
with Unit Type 1, which was the units that the data were in when
they were plotted. Unit Type 2 is simply a factor of X different
than unit type two. It would be nice if I could add a second set of
ticks to the color bar using a different locator and have them face
left. Is this possible? Is there another way to display two values
for each tick such that the colorbar shows both units?
Thanks.
