Comment (by ppurka):
* `GraphicsPrimitive` is unfortunately too crude for most purposes. All
the important functions are defined in `Graphics`.
* I did try using `_render_on_subplot` from `line.py` but ran into the
same problem as you described in comment:9. It simply doesn't work since
matplotlib fails to re-render the line in log scale. Actually I ran into
many more problems; I just can't remember what else. The most painless
method seemed to be to use pyplot (or even pylab, but we can avoid
importing that since we don't need numpy).
That said, it is IMHO better to have logarithmic plots as a separate
class. For instance, it doesn't make much sense to "add" plots with
different scalings (and I also raise an error in the class I created).
