Re: [Lift] Re: Flot 0.6 Upgrade Breaking Change Question
Would we even need to prioritize it? If Flot supports both, we should let it do the hard work of deciding which one to use if they are both present, which I would imagine would be a very rare case. We can just mark the old methods as deprecated and then remove them in the future when Flot doesn't support the old way anymore.

It requires changing the FlotOptions trait. Actually, we could do exactly what Flot 0.6 does and support both (just add the series option without removing the lines, points and shadowSize options), though then we'd need some way to prioritize one way over the other.
