	`1`	`+Axes used to make colorbar now wrapped`
	`2`	`+======================================`
	`3`	`+`
	`4`	`+The axes used to place a colorbar is now wrapped by a new parent class`
	`5`	+(``ColorbarAxes``) when the colorbar is created::
	`6`	`+`
	`7`	`+ cb = fig.colorbar(im, cax=cax)`
	`8`	`+`
	`9`	+This means that ``cb.ax`` is no longer the same object as ``cax``. However,
	`10`	+we map all the methods from ``cb.ax`` onto ``cax`` so ``cax`` should remain
	`11`	+functionally the same as ``cb.ax``.
	`12`	`+`
	`13`	`+Colorbar lines no longer clipped`
	`14`	`+================================`
	`15`	`+`
	`16`	`+If a colorbar has lines added to it (e.g. for contour lines), these will`
	`17`	`+no longer be clipped. This is an improvement for lines on the edge of`
	`18`	`+the colorbar, but could lead to lines off the colorbar if the limits of`
	`19`	`+the colorbar are changed.`
