Description
It looks like there is no way to show to the user how many of the total points have been plotted, and plotly completely locks the web page, preventing any update until script finishes!
I found only the event triggered at the end of plot, but it's useless: once the plot is ended... user can see the plot!
We'd need an event fired at each point plotted, or something like that.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the plotting lifecycle and the existing event fired when plotting ends; define how progress updates could be exposed while plotting is still running, and consider the reported page lock. Done means a documented, testable progress signal that updates before plotting completes without leaving the page unresponsive.
