Dear R-developers, It seems to me that the position of title is usually at the bottom of a plot in sociological and political science books and articles. I wonder if the same convention applies in other disciplines. If yes, is it reasonable to change the default position of main title of plot function?

I'm not an R developer, but: * in my field (biology/ecology), it's at the top. * it doesn't seem that hard to put the titles where you want with mtext() * changing this would have major backward-compatibility/surprise issues for all the other users who expect the title to be at the top ...
