Description
Starting with version 1.4.3 (I believe) of `matplotlib`, there is an `nbagg` backend which allows interactive manipulation of figures. EDIT: In IPython, this is available using `%matplotlib notebook`
Would it be possible to make this available? (At least, I have not worked out how to use it from `IJulia`.)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in IJulia with matplotlib 1.4.3 or newer, then compare the behavior of the IPython `%matplotlib notebook` backend with the current plotting setup. Done means interactive figure manipulation using the `nbagg` backend is available from IJulia.
