I remember, from the time of adding the "GPVAL_MIN_*" functionality, that 
the axis structure would deserve a min/max value as of time of plotting the 
graph, not mixed with "set range". Hans-Bernhard, haven't you thought of 
adding it?

I coded the "set view map", I've listened to your comments, but I had fear 
to hit your axes module. So the status is as is.
