When I switched over to the 2.x branch, I found that for shorter plots
(like when you have a set of vertically stacked subplots), I am seeing
y-axes with only a single tick label. This is without doing any explicit
tick locating. In 1.5.x I didn't see this.
This is bad as it makes the whole point of labeling the ticks pointless
because you can't get any sense of scale.
Yeah, we were experimenting with a modified ticker/autoscaling logic and we
aren't too happy with it either. How fresh is your v2.x branch? I can't
remember if we merged in some tweaks to the logic yet.

If you have that commit in you tree, can you give us an example where it
fails?
