I have the strong opinion that what is going to happen if specialised
plotting functions are introduced is not going to be namespace
pollution at all.

I agree with Aaron's point that deciding which plotting function
exactly to use may become a nuisance.  The solution to this issue
would be to make it very easy to find the necessary plotting function.
For example, each of the specialised plot_'s could check whether the
type of the supplied object fits within its scope and, if not, produce
a meaningful advice.  Such functionality could be easily factored out
in a straightforward private helper function, which should also be
rather easy to extend.

(Of course, I don't mention proper documentation only because I
consider that self-evident :-) )
