So do i. There is already a ongoing thread on bugzilla about histplot(), 
histc(), & hist3d() (partially implemented for Scilab 5.5.0 by Paul and 
Mehran):
http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12925
Making histplot() accepting weighted data is somewhat planned, but time 
was missing (to me) to design a full SEP about histograms management in 
Scilab (please see the thread for ideas).

For weighted data, two cases are possible:
1) input data are already fully categorized in predefined bins. 
histplot() must just plot them
2) input data are already in some bins with related populations 
(weights), but bins must be aggregated into "overbins" before plotting 
the resulting populations.

You may also become Santa Claus for some times, even in July or before :-)
