I too have been irritated by this problem of contour colouring when moving from
4 to 5. My current complaint against v5.0.2 is that (on polar stereo plots
particularly) the filled contouring will occaisionally put in a wild spike of
colour which ruins the plot.

I cannot call to mind any improvements in the map projections in 5 over 4.
