Re: [Matplotlib-users] [matplotlib-devel] crazy ideas for MPL

Eh, can I play ?
* Something I'd really like to see is a way to access a given patch/ 
line/collection/... by a string (a name) instead of having to find the  
corresponding element in a list. That would mean converting lists into  
dictionaries, or at least provide a way to map the list to a dictionary.
An example of application would be "del lines['first']" to delete the  
line named 'first'. By default, if no name is explicitly given to an  
object, we could use the order in which it is drawn...
