Does it work with:
plt.xticks((10**22, 10**23, 10**24), (r'$10^{22}$', r'$10^{23}$',
r'$10^{24}$'), weight='extra bold')

Just prepare a self-running code, and add some documentation what is it good
for. Later send an e-mail either here or to mpl-devel. Someone with commit
access would be glad to include it in pylab_examples.
