[Matplotlib-users] overwriting suptitle?
Is there a way to overwrite suptitle? When using 3rd party libs that return a figure, if they set suptitle and don't give you the text object back then you can't overwrite it?

Why should a reference be kept other than that in self.texts? Instead of keeping track of it somewhere else, would it be sufficient for the suptitle method to add a default suptitle label to the text object? Is there really anything special about the suptitle compared to any other text object that might be placed on the figure? Eric Ben Root -- Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
