Research direction

Start by inspecting the grid-strategy code that is coupled to matplotlib and identify the entry points involved in backend selection. Then assess how bqplot support could fit the existing design. Done means grid-strategy is decoupled enough to support bqplot while retaining its current matplotlib behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Right now this only works with matplotlib, but it would be good to decouple grid-strategy from that a bit and make it possible to add additional backends.

Specifically, I'd like to support bqplot as well.
