Yeah, I mispoke a bit. What I meant is that I prefer black edges, and
I expect
plot(rand(10), 'go')
to have a green face and black edges. There is no way in the new
infrastructure for this to happen by default as far as I can see, but
I can pass mec if I want.
I can live with it, but I may not be the only one, so be prepared for
griping. Or we can consider something like Eric proposed where mec
can either follow mfc or be set to a fixed color, or something along
those lines.

Actually, this is the new default behavior: for filled markers, the mfc
is set to the line color and the mec is set to black. For non-filled
markers, mec is set to the line color and mfc is not used at all.
What is impossible to set by default are alternative settings like
* mec and mfc to line color
* mec to line color and mfc to white
