[yt-users] plot collection labels etc

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Yes, PlotWindow in fact does do something a bit cleverer, replacing
occurances of "_" with "\/", producing a space in the LaTeX rendered label.

Britton is working on new ProfilePlot and PhasePlot plotting commands. Once
they are finished, we will deprecate PlotCollection, which no one wants to
maintain.  These new plotting classes will implement PlotWindow's plot
label heuristics.
