Upstream Matplotlib Qt Designer Plugin

[todd rme]

I notice that python(x,y) has a matplotlib plugin for Qt Designer. I
think this would be very helpful for general users of matplotlib
outside of python(x,y). Is there any possibility of submitting this
plugin upstream for inclusion with the official matplotlib release?
That way people who aren't using python(x,y) (for instance Linux users
who are using their official distribution python packages) could
benefit from the plugin as well. Thank you very much.
