Re: [matplotlib-devel] New patch

Here it is.

Did it slightly different by calling the option "bars_on_top=False", which is 
more descriptive.

Be aware, that this changes the default behaviour, but the difference is so 
subtle that only few people should notice at all. Still, I think this is the 
more reasonable default behaviour, since - usually - the plot line is more 
important than the errorbars and should be clearly visible.
