Incorrect date axis rendering

[holgerbrandl]

Expected: It should render a readible time axis when doing plot + geomStep { x = "first"; y = "second" } + ggtitle(title)

Observed: It is rendering some hard to read time labels.

The column is simply a list of Instants:

In contrast, when rendering the same data with ggplot2 (via kravis) using geomStep (with default scale settings) it feels more readable:

Hi Holger, as a workaround you can specify scaleXDateTime() explicitly. Or automatic scale selection is essential in this case?
