Thanks for finding this. I just committed a slightly less band-aid-like
fix in SVN r4979.
There were really two bugs here:
1) A masked array is created for a line plot whenever only y values are
provided, even if there are no masked values in the data. That would
only be a performance bug if it weren't for...
2) The picking code for a line assumes non-masked arrays. Since the
Line class already keeps around a "compressed" version of the data for
drawing, it is easy enough to use that instead of the raw data.
By fixing 1), 2) is no longer even an issue in your example. However,
for a plot that really does have gaps, 2) needs to be fixed as well.
Cheers,
Mike
