I think Jean is right to rename

We also might rename the plot_boxplot plugin which implements all these
plots to plot_stats.

However, all the univariate distribution graphs are perhaps named something like

plot_stats_dist

since there are 2D and 3D graphs, as well as some of the high dimensional 
graphs (castles, glyphs, faces, etc.) that eventually may get implemented.

It may be worth looking at the R names, not necessarily because they are a 
great choice, but in case we want to borrow ideas/setup etc.

One trap for the unwary: boxplots and histograms etc. on small samples can be 
very misleading and give different results with different packages. This is the 
issue of how to divide 3 chocolate bars among 4 kids. I've some references if 
needed.

Cheers, JN
