pcolorfast is a bit odd in that it uses one of three different mechanisms depending on its inputs, and it is not quite as flexible about input dimensions as pcolormesh, so the lack of a pyplot function for it is deliberate. Thanks for pointing out the references to pcolor in the docstring--I don't know how that has passed apparently unnoticed so long!
