Description

ggplotly() does not support geom_regon() from the ggforce package.

Here is one simple example:

# insert reprex here
library(ggforce)
library(plotly)
p <- ggplot() +
  geom_regon(aes(x0 = runif(8), y0 = runif(8), sides = 3,
                 angle = pi, r = 0.05)) +
  coord_fixed()

ggplotly(p)

Is it possible to have this output in the future? As geom_regon comes very handy and it supplements what ggplot2 does not have. Thanks!

Research direction

Start at the ggplotly() entry point and compare how existing ggplot2 geometries are handled, using the provided geom_regon() example as the reproduction case. Determine the expected converted output and verify that ggplotly() renders this ggforce geometry without breaking existing plot conversions.
