The only way I could think of to do what you want a bit more intelligently
is to reuse the existing QuadContourMesh that comes from the initial call
to contourf. Updates to that "ScalarMappable" object should then trigger
updates to the existing colorbar. Not entirely sure which code would be
cleaner, though, because reusing a QuadContourMesh isn't easy.
