Description
I am attempting to use the attribute "boxgroupgap" from the plotly.js library, with the parent "layout", so that boxplot elements grouped together are thicker and thus more visible. However, it appears react-plotly.js doesn't recognize the line of code when I try to implement it.

Here it says at the bottom that "boxgroupgap" is not a part of Partial. I've actually encountered this issue before, with a lot of attributes carrying over from the main plotly.js library but some simply don't work. Is "boxgroupgap" simply not a part of the react version of plotly.js?

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by inspecting react-plotly.js's Layout type and compare its supported attributes with plotly.js's definition of boxgroupgap. Done means establishing whether the missing attribute is a wrapper typing issue or belongs in the plotly.js project, with the relevant behavior or guidance made clear.
