It already has this. You can pass in a custom locator or set of tick
locations via the "ticks" kwarg, but if you don't, a locator is chosen
automatically. Except in special cases, this will be a MaxNLocator. See the
ColorbarBase._ticker method.
Ah, thanks, It escaped my notice that there is a toplevel "if
self.locator is None:" statement ... ok.
Ah, maybe what you mean is a text option to the "ticks" kwarg that would
specify MaxNLocator without requiring one to instantiate a MaxNLocator? I
don't think this makes sense for the case when boundaries are specified
explicitly.
No, what I intended is exactly what you pointed out.
Btw, can you tell me what the *values* kwarg's semantic is? I guess,
it shall be the center values of the values displayed, but then the
implementation for this in ColorbarBase._process_values() would be
broken.

P.S.: I assume you have be caught by the "misconfiguration" of the
list that the sender is used as the default recipient, so I post back
to the list?
