(turning this into a dev discussion :)
You know, we do evaluate the function for lots of points in the
interval, so we ought to have a pretty intelligent idea of the max and
min of the function. This ought to let us get a pretty good guess at a
ymin and ymax. If we really wanted to get fancy, we could do a small
statistical analysis to throw out outliers too.
This is now trac #2700. If anyone wants to post a patch or say why this
isn't reasonable or that it's already done, feel free :).
