Comment (by ppurka):
I am not sure if this needs to be set to "needs_review". The main thing it
is lacking is that it doesn't inherit the `Graphics` class, and hence the
set of plot options it supports is much less.
On the other hand, I did try to make it inherit the `Graphics` class but
then I ran into a big hurdle: the variables in the `Graphics` class are
defined with double underscore `__` and so even after I inherit it, I need
to use (IMHO ugly) setters and getters in order to access those variables.
I tried to overcome this limitation by inheriting `Graphics` in the class
`LogGraphics` and defining a separate (and mostly identical) `__init__` in
`LogGraphics` but then the methods wouldn't work. Since I needed to
rewrite almost everything, I decided to just rewrite everything from
scratch.
One thing that I plan to do is change all the variables in the `Graphics`
class to be defined with a single `_` and see how it works out. Perhaps
then it might be possible to integrate this patch better and consequently
have access to all the methods (and hence plot options) available to the
`plot` command.
