Hi,
While playing a little bit with "custom_projection_example.py", I
found that "plot" command with projection="hammer" plots too many
markers.
For example,
subplot(111, projection="hammer")
grid(True)
p = plot([-1, 1, 1], [-1, -1, 1], "o")
show()
plots more than 100 circles, instead of 3. And I presume that this is
a bug not a feature.
This seems to be because the draw() method of the Line2D class uses
self._transformed_path for plotting Markers, but number of vertices
in the _transformed_path increases in the curved coordinate system as
in the example.
A patch to fix this is attached. It defines a new property
"self._transformed_path_mark" in the recache() method as follows
tr = self.get_transform()
self._transformed_path = TransformedPath(self._path, tr)
self._transformed_path_mark =
Path(tr.transform_non_affine(self._path.vertices))
and draw() method uses this for plotting markers.
tpath, affine = self._transformed_path_mark, \
self.get_transform().get_affine()
As I'm not 100% sure about how the transform things work, I may have
missed something. But I got correct results for cases I tried.
So I hope this patch is reviewed and applied.

What's happening here is that the Hammer projection uses interpolation to make the lines follow the curve of the projection. Obviously with markers, we don't want that interpolation. The fix is to just use transform_points rather than transform_path with markers. This is now fixed in SVN r5934.
Cheers,
Mike
