Comment (by ppurka):

 The docstring says
 {{{
          If the value of this keyword is a single item, then this will
          give the formatting for the horizontal axis *only* (except for
          the ""latex"" option).  If it is a list or tuple, the first is
          for the horizontal axis, the second for the vertical axis. The
          options are below:
 }}}
 Notice that prior to this, a list was not allowed only for the horizontal
 axis. It was always a `single item`, whatever that meant (and it didn't
 mean a list).

 I really want to force the requirement of having `ticks` and
 `tick_formatter` being of correct lengths. I want to avoid situations
 where,for instance, the user inputs `ticks=pi` and then doesn't give the
 correct number of custom labels. Is there some easy way of determining how
 many tick positions will be present in an axis?
