Research direction

Start by reproducing the interaction described between plotly_hover and plotly_unhover, checking whether handling plotly_unhover causes plotly_hover to fire again. Trace the event flow until the loop is identified, then verify that exposing an off trigger for plotly_unhover prevents the repeated hover behavior.
