I'm for it.  A few days ago I attached a plot to a post about the 
looping test, but rather than something from the "print" command I had 
to use Alt-PrintScrn capture because I was unable to generate a decent 
PNG plot (or SVG).  The one toolkit without complaints (gnuplot Qt) 
produced a black background when it should have been white.  Good output 
is imperative for reports and papers.

Also, I'll try following the gnuplot toolkit a bit more closely to make 
sure bugs aren't finding their way in.
