Research direction

Start by reproducing the SCTK UMAP visualization that triggers geom2trace.default and the geom_GeomTextRepel warning in the newest Docker image. The payload names no source files or tests, so locate the geom2trace implementation and existing geom handlers first; done means this geom is supported without the reported warning.

I would like to ask if this functionality can be considered for next update of the software?
