On Linux the plot is not displayed in this case; I'll have to try on Windows.

So it would seem. I'll look into it, but it seems reasonable that if
you've already created a plot buffer there would be no need to mess
with it further. In the example, "My Title" is shown via the second
gnuplot command (if the "{ set ... }" addition is dropped) since it
was specified when the buffer was created.
