RYan, Thanks for your comments. Regarding your requested features:
Axis breaks - also known as 'gaps'. This might apply to any type of chart, not just a line chart. We have partially implemented such a feature, not released yet, but there is more work to be done because the chart itself needs to be drawn first as if there is no gap, and then clip out the gap. That way a line across the gap, for example, would have the correct slope on both sides of the gap. I'm not sure what you mean by allowing infinity. Do you mean that data values might be Infinity (or -Infinity), and they should somehow be plotted on the chart, perhaps with an infinite size gap? Have you found any example where this is done? Maybe some kind of hyperbolic scale would be appropriate here to accurately represent infinity on the axis. We do allow individual data values to be plotted with their own style now, using a style 'role'. See https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/roles The background color of regions can be simulated by using an area chart (with additional series values), but this is admittedly a hack. We are thinking about how to provide this as a built-in feature.
