       | missing feature for me.

         | Thanks, Simon! We've been working our way through the most
         | asked-for features. This was #2 after TypeScript declarations
         | which we shipped in 0.6.5.
         | 
         | Support for interaction was the biggest conceptual piece left
         | to declare "1.0", so I'm thrilled by the progress we've made.
         | This is the culmination of a couple years of thinking and
         | experimentation! Fil got brushing working a few minutes after
         | the release, so I suspect we'll see brushing and other
         | selection modes in the near future. (Sneak peek:
         | https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/plot-brush-
         | interactio...) We also want to allow panning & zooming and
         | declarative animation, but I expect those to take longer.

           | That demo is really cool - I added "Inputs.table(selection)"
           | to it and being able to drag selections on the chart and see
           | the results instantly in a table is very neat.
