scattergl plot shapes not working #1372
Description
I don't know if it is a known issue but it seems that shapes don't work on scattergl plots.
Here there are two identical code-pens one with svg (scatter plot type) and the other with webgl (scattergl plot type) to demonstrate this issue:
Does anyone know if this will be fixed soon for "scattergl" plots?
I think it is a quite important feature for scatter plots...
Thank you!

I've seen now it is on the known limitations already: #130
Still, any idea when this could be solved or when those limitations will be planned to be solved?
Webgl is quite more powerful than SVG when plotting a lot of points in scatter plots, so it would be very nice to have same great features as there are in SVG plots...
Thank you!

@etpinard I forked plotly and made a branch to add more symbols to the scattergl plot. According to the PR guidelines, a maintainer needs to review changes

@etpinard Sorry, I meant to PR to my own 'master' but sent a PR to plotly

Thanks for the PR @destradafilm I don't think these are the shapes @ifll was referring to.

Nope.. by shapes I meant drawing lines and other geometrical figures... I think it is quite easy to check what I meant on the codepens I provided
But anyway, thank you very much @destradafilm for improving scattergl plots :D

Okay, now I'm trying to implement a 'line of best fit' or 'regression line' and need this feature as well

worth thinking about in #1869

Will be fixed by @dfcreative 's regl-based
scattergl:We should add a test mock for this thing before merging.
