matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib

Wow. It definitely should be private, or at the very least excluded 
from the docs, through whatever mechanism Sphinx gives us. I really 
hope no one is using that as a public API -- I think it's ok to just 
privatize this post haste without a deprecation period.

Hey folks,
While I'm primarily a Vim/Sublime Text kind of guy, my employer provides me
with a Windows machine with Visual Studio and whatnot. So I've been giving
PTVS a shot (https://pytools.codeplex.com/). Seems perfectly nice so far.
But the point is that I just wanted the dev team to know that they've got
an open ticket about their Intellisense/code completion with the pyplot
module:
https://pytools.codeplex.com/workitem/1841
Basic summary is the autogenerated docstrings maybe the culprit.
I'm not suggesting any wholesale changes to MPL to accommodate this. It
just seemed like something y'all might want to know about in case any big
decisions in that area come up.
Note: that in my experience, you get good code completion and tooltips when
working directly with axes objects. So maybe that's all the more reason to
push users away from pyplot?
Cheers and as always, many thanks for the great tools!

While looking up some information, I came across this hideousness:
http://matplotlib.org/api/artist_api.html?highlight=text#matplotlib.text.Text.cached
Why is this member made public? I would have thought it should be "private"?
