As Aaron, said, we need some module that can handle all the backends,
and so that they can be switched easily if needed. Matplotlib is the
one obvious one. But for example on the app engine, matplotlib doesn't
run on it, so some other library is an obvious choice, like the google
chart api, or exporting the plotting data over json, and use some
javascript plotting library.

In all these cases, the basic Plot() command in sympy should be able
to handle all that.
