I don't think so, apart from what I stated above, which was discussed quite some time ago. I think there is really no strong motivation to completely remove numerix from the present generation of matplotlib, although it does seem like it would be nice to nudge users toward pure and current numpy usage. I imagine that mpl1, however, might never have a numerix at all; and maybe by the time mpl1 is ready for use, maskedarray will have replaced ma in numpy, so we won't need anything like numerix.npyma either.
