OK, I have nothing against it.

There has been some discussion about this.
gnuplot_preamble cannot be nuked, because wxplot will break. A new
option was requested
that would add commands after the commands set by plot2d/3d and not
after. That leave us with
the following possibilities: gnuplot_preamble/gnuplot_postamble, or
gnuplot_preamble/gnuplot_suffix.
Can you please vote on any of these two or suggest something else?

OK, I agree. How about logx and logy? Do you think they should also
become log_x and log_y?
