Well, I'm pretty sure it needs further tweaks, but I think that the bulk
of the work would benefit from review at this point --- should I send it
in?

Ah yes, well if Mario is interested I'm certainly open to such an idea :)

On the usefulness front, I'm quite confident that the exposes some handy
functionality. One notable result of my patches it that they allow users
to define plot types they use frequently as 1st-class types (i.e. used
just as #+PLOT: type:grid, just type:custom instead). This allows the
GNUPlot boilerplate to be dissociated from the data being plotted, which
I view as quite beneficial. This generalises the existing types into
a default set of custom types.

Of course.

Thanks for getting back to me on this,
