Research direction

Start by reviewing the go.Splom implementation and the feature discussion in plotly/plotly_express#42. Clarify how diagonals should appear and what behavior is expected before locating the relevant implementation and tests. Done means the requested diagonal behavior is implemented and covered by appropriate tests.

Description

feature P3

I'd like to point out that there is still interest in the feature discussed in plotly/plotly_express#42. Now that plotly/plotly_express is archived, this belongs here IMHO.
