I haven't tested this but I did take a brief look at it and I think
your cleaning and organizing is useful.  I think we have a naming
problem though -- this __init__ module defines an rcdefaults function,
which is likely to cause confusion with the new rcdefaults module.
Eg,

from matplotlib import rcdefaults

will be ambiguous.  You may want to consider a new name.
