-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
There are a few issues that are left over from #5448, which at the very
least should be documented. None of them are major.
Contour plot - if fill=False and contours are grayscale, the axes could be
misinterpreted
Contour plot - show(axes=False) and show(axes=True) seem to be identical
on the last example
Plotting - how well documented is the new axis behavior, where it does NOT
intersect? This should be clear, e.g. the Riemann zeta example in plot.py
looks funny, until you realize it's from 1 to 27. It still seems weird to
me when it's that close, but I suppose it's okay as long as it is very
very clear in documentation.
Axis labels - should point out difference between ['x','y'] and
['$x$','$y$']. Some people might not like the LaTeXed? version
When scientific notation comes into play is not always clear, and should
be in the documentation - compare plot(x**2, 490,500) and
plot(x**2,-490,500), which have the same "height" but only one gets e,
presumably since it covers a larger range
