Description

In the latest ggplto2 release, geom_ribbon() can only stroke the upper and lower bounds and I'm wondering whether it is possible for the ggplot-converted plotly graphic to also have this feature?

A small code to play around with:

library(ggplot2)
library(plotly)
#> 
#> Attaching package: 'plotly'
#> The following object is masked from 'package:ggplot2':
#> 
#>     last_plot
#> The following object is masked from 'package:stats':
#> 
#>     filter
#> The following object is masked from 'package:graphics':
#> 
#>     layout
huron <- data.frame(year = 1875:1972, level = as.vector(LakeHuron))
p1 <- ggplot(huron, aes(year)) + 
  geom_ribbon(aes(ymin = level - 10, ymax = level + 10), fill = "grey", colour = "black")
p1

ggplotly(p1)

Research direction

Start by running the supplied LakeHuron example with ggplot2 and ggplotly, then trace how geom_ribbon() is converted. Compare the source and converted plots, and verify that the resulting graphic preserves strokes on only the upper and lower bounds.
