Description
It would be great both to have auto mode for the xticks yet being able to set them to be integer values only.
One could set them manually but them the auto scaling is gone.
Yet in some cases one would like to have only integers.
Yet setting the format to d might yield the same value number of time (1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2 will be mapped to 1, 1, 1, 2, 2 while one would like to have only 1 and 2 [Or others yet with auto range on]).

Research direction
The issue does not name a file, entry point, or test. Start by locating the xtick and automatic tick-generation handling, then clarify how integer-only ticks should behave across automatically chosen ranges. Done means automatic scaling remains enabled while generated tick values are integers, without relying on number formatting to collapse non-integer ticks.
