Hi there!
Let me introduce a small but very useful fix for animation blitting for plots which share axes.
Currently, we enumerate artists to both cache background and draw artists in a single pass. But imagine we've got twin plot that share the same axis. As the first sibling draws foreground before the second managed to cache the background we've got incorrect background for the second sibling!
Fortunately, it's easy to fix if we cache background and draw foreground with two distinct passes. Please apply this change because it's very annoying to not have animated twin plots.
