Comment(by jason):

 My understanding was that we were making a rather thin wrapper around the
 already-existing legends functionality in matplotlib, rather than trying
 to come up with our own implementation.  If we can write a better
 implementation, then great!  However, it's an easy first step to write a
 wrapper around matplotlib's implementation.  Here are some examples of
 matplotlib's legends:

  *
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/dannys_example.html
  *
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/figlegend_demo.html
  *
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/findobj_demo.html
  *
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/legend_auto.html
  *
 http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/legend_demo3.html

 As for a shortcut, I think it would be consistent to make it an option to
 show, like {{{(a+b+...+g).show(legends=True)}}}.
