Description

documentation enhancement

The Event handlers documentation page documents a number of events emitted by Plotly.js.

However there are many more which are not listed on that page. As far as I can tell, there's no complete list of events anywhere in the docs.

It would be great to add a table on that page with each event name and a one-sentence description of each.
