Uninstall renders matplotlib unusable #7

In order for matploblib to be usable again after uninstall, one must set the backend again. After pip uninstall itermplot and removing $MPLBACKEND, iPython still tries to use this backend. Running %pylab once in the console fixes the problem. This should be at least documented.

I've improved the documentation. Thanks for the comment @themightyoarfish
