139863868 MDU6SXNzdWUxMzk4NjM4Njg= 788 Composite coordinate plot only works in one orientation 22805 closed 0     15 2016-03-10T11:44:40Z 2016-03-14T10:09:45Z 2016-03-13T20:06:02Z NONE      

When I create a composite coordinate i.e. d.coords['c'] = d.a * d.b and then try and plot a 2d plot of the data, it only works when the composite index is on the y axis. When on the x-axis it fails with

TypeError: Dimensions of C (3, 5) are incompatible with X (4) and/or Y (6)

ipynb notebook (and pdf version of same notebook) attached that recreate the error
