Comment (by kcrisman):

 Swift glance is all I have time for now, but on the face of it this seems
 good.  ppurka, do we want the possibility of custom formatting even if for
 some reason someone just guesses that there are three ticks and then pass
 in the correct list?  What about if people send in other custom tick
 options?  For instance, I could imagine
 {{{
 
plot(sin(x),(x,-2*pi,2*pi),ticks=pi,tick_formatter=['$2\pi$','','','','$2\pi$'])
 }}}
 or something.  Notice also that we want to make sure that it works
 properly with the `tick_formatter` convention that if there is only one
 item, not a list of two lists/`None`, then it corresponds to the
 horizontal axis.  Otherwise things get too weird.
