Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior with %matplotlib widget in JupyterLab, then compare it with %matplotlib notebook as shown in the report. Done means rerunning the same cell does not create another figure or trigger the maximum-open warning.

Description

Hi, I use ipympl in jupyterlab.%matplotlib widget opens a different figure for the same cell after each run. Soon I'll get this max open warning, which is kinda irritating. %matplotlib notebook has no such issue. Is there a way to not open another figure in the same cell?
