[BioC] arrayQualityMetrics: Binning grid too coarse for current (small) bandwidth

[Florian Hahne]

Hi Wolfgang,
I am not sure that we want to move smoothScatter from base graphics to  
grid graphics. This makes adding to the graph much harder. There is a  
grid version in the lattice package using panel.levelplot, so maybe  
Deepayan can be convinced to use grid.raster directly in there.
Bw,
Florian
