Comment (by ppurka):

 Replying to [comment:12 paulmasson]:
 > Evaluating `plot(x, xmin=1, xmax=-1)` with a reversed domain does not
 produce a plot. Evaluating`plot(1/x,xmin=-5,xmax=5,ymin=5,ymax=-5)` with
 an inverted range flips the plot upside down.

 Second command should be the desired output.

 > Shouldn't this ticket be first about a sanity check on domain and range?
 Is there a good reason to allow reversal and inversion?

 A good reason to allow flipped axis is to have axes that are decreasing
 instead of increasing. It is already possible by using
 `plot(...).show(xmax=-1,xmin=1)`. This ticket was about making the
 behavior of plot ''consistent'' with what `plot(...).show()` does.
