The patch that I submitted is indeed tightly coupled with gnuplot, in
the sense that its syntax is just a quick way to enter a gnuplot
command.

If we need Matlab compatibility, maybe yes, adding -S is not a good
idea. On the other hand, if Matlab does not have the notion of pixel
size, -S should not do any harm. And yes, the real problem could be
backwards compatibility.
