I noticed that I can switch it only before any plots are made and then
I cannot switch it back.

E.g.
octave:1> backend("fltk")
octave:2> plot(rand(10))
octave:3> backend("gnuplot")
octave:4> plot(rand(10))

makes all plots with fltk.

octave:1> plot(rand(10))
octave:2> backend("fltk")
octave:3> plot(rand(10))

makes all plots with gnuplot.

Not a problem for me, but not sure if this is an intended behavior
