yes, exactly.

Thank you for your explanations.

  Well in my case it's not really a big problem, I just have to play a
little with axis limits to get what I want.

  Actually I thought that "after end axis" would be completely
independent from the axis environment parameters (axis limits, etc.)
while still allowing access to (axis cs:x,y) coordinates in order to put
annotations on top of existing graph. However it appears it doesn't work
that way...

yes, the placement is fine.

hmm, thanks I'll look into it.
