Many of these classes are a bit obscure to users. Can we include the Axes calls that make them?

I agree that these classes are a bit obscure. OTOH, the Z-order is exactly attached to these classes. It does not match too well to Axes calls, at least I found no consistent and descriptive way: Line2D can be created by a number of methods: plot (and all of its derivatives like semilogx, ...), axh/vline, scatter (depending on the parameters), ... Major ticks are implicitly made, there's no Axes method that create them. Even though Text and Rectangle are also building blocks for tables, I would not reference table() as a patch-creating method.
Therefore, I sticked to the existing structure of the table and just added more entries. Ideas to improve on that are always welcome.

I would just do e.g. ax.plot, including minor... without trying to be comprehensive...

Feel free to push an update if you like. I'm not feeling like fiddling what commands should get added right now.
Anyway, IMHO this PR stands for for itself and could get merged as an incremental improvement as is. Further improvements are always possible later.
