The question how to represent and handle "true sky" regions that work without a WCS has come up many times, see e.g. #13, #295, #303, #76, #221 Ideas how to...

It looks like a lot of thought has gone into STC-S and having this in `astropy.regions` would be a big win-win: - More widespread adoption for `STC-S`. - A well...

@jlenain - So what you want is that the sky circle shows up correct, with two separated patches at different edges of the image, right? I don't think there is...

@astrofrog - Thanks for the tip, implemented in 30eebc9 . If the current axis is a WCSAxes or one is passed in, calling plot on the sky region seems to...
