Description

Matplotlib is able to handle canvas events https://matplotlib.org/stable/users/event_handling.html Perhaps, after mouse clicking or panning the ticks handling could be delegated back to matplotlib? So this could perhaps elimate the need in ticks=:native for pyplot backend

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate matplotlib event handling for zoom/pan and integrate into Plots.jl's PyPlot backend to automatically set ticks=:native after such interactions.
