That's a problem with gnuplot, but not necessarily with other plotting
libraries that we might use to implement the graphics backend. I see
the gnuplot backend as a temporary solution, so I don't think it makes
a lot of sense to invest much more effort to extend it.

I think the graphics properties need to be compatible with Matlab.
