Continuous color causes error when x or y is factor

When I try to take color from numeric variable and one of the axes is factor, it raises error Error in Summary.factor(...) : ‘range’ not meaningful for factors:

data(mpg)
mpg$classF <- as.factor(mpg$class)

# error when x is factor AND color is numeric:
mpg %>% 
  plot_ly(x = ~classF, y = ~cyl, color = ~displ) %>%
  add_markers()
# Error in Summary.factor(c(2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L,  : 
#                             ‘range’ not meaningful for factors

# works fine when x is character:
mpg %>% 
  plot_ly(x = ~class, y = ~cyl, color = ~displ) %>%
  add_markers()

# also works fine if color is factor or character:
mpg %>% 
  plot_ly(x = ~classF, y = ~cyl, color = ~as.character(displ)) %>%
  add_markers()

まず、提供されているmpgの例をRセッションで実行し、factor-axisとnumeric-colorの失敗を再現します。factorデータに対してrangeを呼び出している色処理を追跡します。失敗する例がエラーなしで動作し、character-axisとfactor-or-character-colorのケースが引き続き動作すれば完了です。
