Thanks :-)

Oh, wow. I'll take care of that.

ones that do (see #14074 for that polygons apparently work). Similarly
for the doctests of it, naturally.
Ack. I'd had so many problems with alpha that I just assumed saving it
wouldn't work on anything. Still, that makes sense, considering that
coordinates don't raise objections from matplotlib.
> * You cannot just save `p.save("test.pdf")`, unfortunately, as that
will produce files left over after doctesting. There is a framework for
temporary files - in fact, several competing ones - for doctesting, there
should be some good examples in the `save` method (?).
Alright; I'll look for that.
> * When referencing Trac tickets, you might as well put it in the main
line, e.g.
> {{{
> Save alpha information in pdf (see :trac:`13732`)::
> }}}
I thought there was something, but I couldn't remember it, and I figured
that someone would correct me if so. Bingo. :-D
Okay, I'll get to work fixing this now.
