Has anything been done set up a collaborative TODO list?

In any event, I noticed a problem that may qualify for the list. When the mode 
for the axes tick values or labels are changed from manual to auto, the values 
are not updated.

        clf
        h = surf (peaks);
        get (gca, "xtick")
        ans =    0   10   20   30   40   50
        set (gca, "xtick", [])
        set (gca, "xtickmode", "auto")
        get (gca, "xtick")
        ans = [](0x0)

This happens for both gnuplot and fltk.

Shouldn't this updating be triggered in the backend, in the same way changing 
the xlimmode to "auto" triggers an update to {x,y,z}lim?
