Dear Stefan,
        thanks for the reply and for the links. You're right, the shift is not
essential for producing a waterfall plot. I did eventually use 

\addplot ... y expr=\thisrowno{1} + <some y-shift value>...

for the desired outcome, so the issue is probably a case of mixing
incompatible features. 

My best,
 - J.

P.S. As my friend noted once, pgfplots gives too nice output - it will
ruin you for good, and now I weep every time I have to edit a *.doc
manuscript sent by a collaborator.
