None that I am aware of, but if one existed, it would likely be found
within the basemap module. If it isn't in the Basemap module, it would be
an awesome feature to add. Maybe something that would work with my
style-cycling mechanism that I have been tinkering with to allow for users
to specify 4 different hatchings for b&w publications?
