Hello,

Can the 'zorder' of the ticks be set? This minimal example shows a 
hard-coded value of 2.5

This may come from file "matplotlib/axes.py", function "draw()". Can it 
be adjusted? Shall it be bug-reported?

import matplotlib.pyplot as pyplot

fig = pyplot.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot("111")

ax.add_patch(pyplot.Rectangle((0,0), 1, 1, zorder=3))
ax.xaxis.set_zorder(4)
# Expected behavior: the ticks should be drawn after the Rectangle,
# because 4 > 3. They should therefore be visible.

pyplot.show()
# Problem: The ticks are hidden by the rectangle, contrary to the
# expected behavior.

print(ax.xaxis.get_zorder())
# Prints 2.5 instead of 4!
