Use cases for Compose/3D

[SimonDanisch]

As I mentioned in #7 I wanted to open an issue to collect some use cases!
These are for 2D and 3D!

Some guidelines:
First post the most native format you're data is in.
E.g.:
File with two columns of floats -> myread(::file) -> Array{Float32, 2}
Then your dream plotting command together with a description of the most perfect visualization you can possibly think of for this kind of data, best together with a picture.
E.g:

a = data
plot(x=Seconds(a[1:end, 1]), y=Millimeter(a[1:end, 2])) # assuming views don't copy
plot(convert(Point{mm, s}, a))

Please also post ideas for interactive visualizations!

There is still no easy way to do mesh, surf and the basic 3d plots with the usual zoom/rotation that one routinely uses in other environments. Sorry - I don't have fancy use cases yet. Will think about those.
