Ah, this makes more and more sense. I could use importr to import ggplot2 and have access to all its R internals from python. Now I think understand why only ggplot2 and grid are in the robjects.libs. This is great, I'll definitely be using this going forward. Thanks again for your help, Laurent, and thanks for rpy2!
