..or how easy it often is to get a plot with equivalent information
with matlines(). I actually hadn't noticed the existence of
interaction.plot() before.

We might need a general "trace grapher" including continuous variables
instead of factors and handling unbalanced designs, e.g. plot data vs.
time for each person, with different symbols for different groups.
Maybe also with fixups for missing values, etc. (Now don't tell me
such a thing already exists!)
