Hi,
an option for quiver to quickly draw thousands of simple monocolor
arrows each constructed from e.g. 3 line segments would be useful for
someone(like me) that uses matplotlib
for browsing vector plots of large fields (e.g. 800x600). currently
this is not practical
with any of the quiver variants, as it takes minutes to render. I
already use linecollections
to draw high res coastlines, so a faster quiver should be feasible.

another optimization could be perhaps be to arrange for numpy arrays
to be passed directly to the drawing methods instead of the all the
zipping and loops that currently are necessary?

otherwise, quiver2 looks very good for final plots - good work!
