| Not true.  In fact, it currently may be the best setup yet.  Consider the 
following:
| 
| image
| ps = get(gcf,"__plot_stream__")
| fprintf(ps,"unset colorbox\n")
| fprintf(ps,"replot\n")
| fflush(ps)

OK, but I'd rather not recommend doing this sort of thing.

At the very least, we should tell people that if they do tricky things
like this, then their code will depend explicitly on gnuplot, which
will make it fail for other graphics backends.
