 Shouldn't it be necessary to issue a deprecation warning for at least a
 few Sage releases before we change the location of something?  If I
 understand correctly, this patch will break all uses of
 `sage.plot.plot.Graphics`.  To me, this seems like a bad idea for 5.0.
 Doing `search_src('plot.Graphics')` brings up a few more places `Graphics`
 and `GraphicsArray` are used in this way, but not addressed by this patch.
 For example, `graphs/graph_generators.py` and
 `shemes/elliptic_curves/ell_generic.py`.

 I'm switching this to "needs info", and someone can overrule me if there
 is good reason to skip the deprecation process for this ticket.
