Description
I tried to find an existing issue for this and didn't find anything that seemed to fit - however I am using plotly.py so not quite sure if this is an issue with its root in plotly.js or just the python interface...This being said, is there the possibility to use Scattergl with stacked area plots in the same way as with normal Scatter plots? Currently, the "stackgroup" keyword argument fails for Scattergl.
Thanks!

Research direction
Start by comparing how Scatter supports the stackgroup attribute with how Scattergl handles trace attributes. Verify the expected stacked-area behavior for Scattergl and identify the relevant Plotly.js tests or trace entry points; done means stackgroup is accepted and produces the corresponding stacked plot.
