Even for insiders, but particularly for beginners :)

There are so many nice features in pgfplots that I'm confident nobody's
blaming you!

As a mathematician, I personally never use multi-axis so this is just a
proposition and maybe some other users could have better ideas.

Sigh... my pgf knowledge is rather limited so it would take much time
for me.

I'll try anyway but without any guarantee.

It could be nice to collect opinion of others to know the current needs
in multi-axis usage.

It looks like some redundancies could be avoided, no?

It looks much better!

OK, I can understand.

Well, the code I would eventually submit would certainly be
suboptimal ;)

Thanks!

Best regards.
