So to comment on this: With Aaron and Duc's work on the pace-python side of things, with the "compiled" matlab and runtime, it is possible to directly use the Python to run the matlab plotting routines during the transition period and they will work just as you expect.

Following the "coring out" of the Python the option of switching entirely to matplotlib does raise some issues. In particular because of the rendering order of matplotlib, creating a tool like sliceomatic will be tricky, albeit not impossible. plotly or MayaVi, however may or may not provide the functionality we need.
