Axis used in Basemap plots loses the tickmarks when plot is zoomed.

I would suggest a boolian operator to allow for readjustment of axis ticks?

Start with the linked Stack Overflow report and reproduce the axis-tick loss when interactively zooming a Basemap plot. The issue names no files or tests, so first identify the zoom behavior involved and clarify the proposed boolean option; done should mean that axis ticks remain available after interactive zooming.
