   In fact a really nice addition to the API might be to permit "axis legends", where instead of drawing a legend, we use color-coded, stacked, hanging x and y-axes, with axis labels instead of legend labels. This would be suitable for comparing data with vastly different ranges.

   So many ideas, so little time...

   Arbitrarily many twins are now implemented (see #226). The specific "hanging" axis feature is probably not high priority.

    For those interested, it is now very easy to generate "hanging" axes in proplot with e.g. ax.altx(loc=('axes', 1.1)) -- although the positions are still not auto-adjusted. See this example from the website.
