Description

I would love it if I could easily send and update pylab plots within a pane. I can't see an easy way to do it right now.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Visdom currently handles plotting via its Python client (e.g., visdom.line, visdom.scatter) and explore ways to accept a Matplotlib figure object. Look at existing discussions in issue comments for any proposed API designs or challenges. Consider the existing backend (probably Tornado) for serving plots and how to convert Matplotlib figures to PNG/SVG for display.
