Hi Rik,
I thought it is too redundant to have a menubar which has the exact
actions as the toolbar at the bottom and the keyboard shortcuts.

To summarise the implementation after my last cset:

* The shortcuts p,a,r,g affects the last, with the mouse clicked axes
object or the last added axes if no one was clicked so far. Only the
figure which is associated with the window are affected

* The toolbar buttons at the bottom left behave exactly like the shortcuts.

* The menubar Edit ->* works on all axes which is in my view great if
you work with subplots.


My idea was that a user who want to change pan/rotate/grid/zoom on a
spezific axes would click it and use the toolbar or shortcuts (I never
saw one of my colleagues using the menu).

We could also extend the menu a little bit and integrate menu entries
which work on all axes and others which behave like the toolbar buttons.
