That is a reasonable position to take, but the logic must be put into
the scripts to support that. It is broken as it is right now and not
ready for release IMHO.
There is already a set of checks and functions in place for whether
gnuplot supports certain features. That needs to be updated to work with
the current baseline. There are many places now where Octave sends a
command to gnuplot, and gnuplot responds with an arcane (to the Octave
user) error message about unsupported syntax or options.
