Description
Because PARTITION BY is analogous the group aesthetic, we should be able to set it at the top-level to be inherited by individual layers.
Currently, we're doomed to repeat it at every layer.
I want to be able to do (something like) this:
VISUALISE x, y FROM df PARTITION BY id
DRAW polygon
DRAW path
Instead of having to do this:
VISUALISE x, y FROM df
DRAW polygon PARTITION BY id
DRAW path PARTITION BY id

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by tracing how PARTITION BY is parsed and applied to individual DRAW layers, then determine where a top-level PARTITION BY could be inherited. Done means the VISUALISE example applies the partition to both polygon and path layers without repeating it.
