I rather prefere to keep it the way it is (and to do it the same way as R does 
it. At least I would expect from a R GUI to act almost as R does). Most 
papers I read (biosciences) present "simple" graphs with not to much bling 
bling. This mean no background, few colors but dashed, dotted lines and so on 
(and in most cases black and white).
I mentioned it before when I was posting about the color options. Keep it 
simple keep it "clean" is my preferred way to present results. (moreover it 
saves toner when you print it ;) ).
