Ah...a question for me!  I felt the same way and added this ability
about 18 months ago to Octave.  It never got very well documented though!

Try:

octave:1> plot(sin([0:.1:3]),";sin(x);")

The semi-colons delimit the label.  Other plot options are also
possible within the same quoted options string.  For more
documentation try:

"type __pltopt__"

and read the top comments.

        Good Luck,
