Correction for something I said earlier. I got my pcolor and pcolormesh
objects mixed up. Neither the QuadMesh nor the PolyCollection from the two
functions are image-based. So they do have a glimmer of hope of being
converted into 3d. The PolyCollection is the best candidate as I think
there is better support for that now in mplot3d. QuadMesh is a different
beast, but might be tamable.

Sorry for any confusion.

Cheers!
