Thanks - I wasn't thinking about it the right way, and I didn't know where to focus my investigation of the examples.
Thank you very much for pointing me at the specific example that solved my problem. For others who might have the same question, that would be the part of the example that transforms the label values using 2^value, which turns the label from something that looks like "2^3" into an actual 8. Actually, other parts of the example are also very enlightening for other useful things to do with tick labels.

Doesn't the first (densityplot) example in ?yscale.components.default do this?
