Display zero-axis?

Hi there,

checking the documentation, I could not find any information about displaying
the zero-axis, possibly even moving the tick-marks and lables from the edge
of the plotting area to the zero-axis (as it is often done in mathematics)

Is there any specific support for this that I did not notice? Has anybody
already spent thought on the subject?

The simplest solution would probably be to (ab-)use the gridline mechanism or
extend it with a third option ("minor","major" and "zero"). Anyhow,
sometimes, one would want both displayed: the zeroaxis in black and some
gridlines in faint gray. Furthermore, this simple solution is not extendable
to putting the ticks on the zeroaxis.

Any ideas?

Ciao,
Nobbi

Just found axvline/axhline which serves for my purpose at the moment. The
tick-marks would not have been more than a special treat anyway...
