Sorry, since I'm not sure where is the best place to post this, there is also a copy at
https://sourceforge.net/p/pgf/feature-requests/113/
please delete the unessary one.

pgfplots makes perfect graphics with awesome precision and details! Many many thanks to the contributors!!

In some cases it is also very good to uses some less perfect graphics, e.g. when talking about ideas or simply if one wants to give things a more "human made", sketch like apperace.

In the web world there is a new js libary which do this in a great simple way (on svg base)

Just have a look:

=> What do you think, wouldn't this be also intersting for latex world (PGF, TikZ, pgfplots..) ?

Best regards

    Thanks for your interest! I believe the feature request for PGF is the adequate place. Maybe pgfplots will inherit if there is a solution eventually.
