Description
So, I have currently implemented the tozeroy fill (the area under the curve) to a feature in one of the datasets I'm working with
When I set the fill the tozeroy, it fills under the areas of the plot that currently have no data in it, tozeroy currently joins a polygon from the bottom edge of a point that has data to the top of another edge that has data in it to cover that empty data trace section.
When I set the fill to 'none', plotly obeys the rule of not covering for the spots that has no data in it as shown in the picture below
The areas I circled is where the problem lies as shown in the picture below
Thank you

Research direction
The report does not name a file, test, executable example, or dataset, so first obtain a minimal Python reproduction of the tozeroy plot with missing data points. Compare its behavior with fill set to none and trace the relevant Plotly rendering entry point. Done means tozeroy leaves gaps without data unfilled, with a regression test covering the case.
