Given the frequency of this question, maybe it would be 
a good idea on the main project page
<URL:http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/>
to augment the text

        The plotting functions in the pylab interface have 
        a high degree of MatlabĀ® compatibility.

to include a caveat:

        The plotting functions in the pylab interface have 
        a high degree of MatlabĀ® compatibility.  (These are
        suitable for plotting scripts but NOT for GUI 
        embeddding, which should use the matplotlib API.)
