Ugh, yeah, that wouldn't be desirable. Hopefully someone else can thnk of
something more clever. Perhaps the webagg backend might provide a clue? If
not, I can live without it for the purposes of my book.
As for my next hurdle. There is the well-known limitation with animation
saving that the figure must be of the same size for the duration of the
entire movie (the tight_layout bug). To make my session recorder fairly
robust, it would be good to disable resizing the figure during the
interactive session. I tried turning the canvas's resize_event() into a
no-op, but that didn't work (I suspect figure resizing happens earlier with
the event merely emitted as an afterthought).
Thoughts?
