I just noticed that "epslatex" terminal was improved considerably in
the new gnuplot version (4.1, you can download testing binaries for
windows).
Take a look.

If you process the files manually it's no problem to edit the
"verbatimtex" part of the resulting metapost output. However, this
cannot be done if the file is generated and included with the gnuplot
module.
I'll first finish the ConTeXt terminal and perhaps fix/improve mp
terminal on the basis of ConTeXt terminal later (or during writing
it).
It's very easy to fix gnuplot, so that it will be able to place
additional commands inside "verbatimtex" section. If anyone needs
that, I can add it and submit it to patches, but I can only provide
you windows binaries after that. (I tried to compile it on three linux
boxes without success, although it should be trivial.)
All I need to know is the keyword that you want to use and that would
make sense. Epslatex uses the following syntax for example:
set terminal epslatex header "\usepackage{something}"
(Would anyone need that at all?)
My next question is going to be: how should I handle fonts in context
terminal? (But probably for another thread or for off-list discussions
only.)
