Description
These could work like style() or colorbar() and be used to, say, modify annotations after-the-fact to add some hovertext:
p <- ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, wt)) + geom_point() + facet_wrap(~vs)
ggplotly(p) %>% annotations(
which = 1,
hovertext = "Hover text for first panel",
hoverlabel = list(bgcolor = "black")
)

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing style() and colorbar() APIs, then trace how annotations are represented and modified after ggplotly() creates a plot. Done means a user can select a special plot element, such as an annotation in the first facet, and update properties including hovertext and hoverlabel.
