Hi,
it would be great to have in quarto for vega-lite, something like the Mermaid diagrams.
To write something like
``` {vega-lite}
{
"data": {
"values": [
{"a": "C", "b": 2}, {"a": "C", "b": 7}, {"a": "C", "b": 4},
{"a": "D", "b": 1}, {"a": "D", "b": 2}, {"a": "D", "b": 6},
{"a": "E", "b": 8}, {"a": "E", "b": 4}, {"a": "E", "b": 7}
]
},
"mark": "point",
"encoding": {
"x": {"field": "a", "type": "nominal"}
}
}
```
to get

Thank you
