When plotting using the default values for graphics methods' yticlabels2 and xticlabels2, the automatic value ('*') doesn't work (default template hides those labels, so it's been going unnoticed for who knows how long; as a sidenote, we should probably test using a template with every field enabled).
import vcs
data = [range(10) for i in range(10)]
x = vcs.init()
tmpl = vcs.createtemplate()
tmpl.ylabel2.priority = 1
tmpl.xlabel2.priority = 1
x.plot(data, tmpl)
