I'm weakly inclined to leave things as they are, since it is so easy
to get the desired behavior by setting the extent kwarg.  If we just
put a help string in the imshow docstring telling people how to get
what they want, that may suffice.  That said, I am a light user of
images and do not feel strongly at all.  If people who are heavy image
users feel strongly, I'm happy to change.  Perry?

matshow doesn't really have much of a purpose any more.  It's primary
reason for being was to handle aspect ratio when aspect ratio was
broken.  Fernando -- do you see any reason to keep matshow?
