Description
Hi! I was wondering if there's an easy to visualize discrete scalar attributes (e.g. facet coloring/clustering). It seems that scalar quantities are associated a continuous color map (like Viridis), but I'd like to use a discrete color palette instead (maybe using something from https://colorbrewer2.org?).

Research direction
Start by locating where scalar quantities are mapped to continuous color maps and how facet coloring or clustering is exposed. Compare that path with the requested indexed, discrete palette behavior, including a possible ColorBrewer-style palette; done means indexed scalar attributes can be visualized with a fixed discrete palette.
