Hello,

it would be very nice to have the possibilty to set the z-ordering priority of traces in plotly. I think the way matplotlib handles it is pretty handy:

  • default z-order value for a trace is 0;
  • if multiple trace have the same z-order value, matplotlib decides the ordering of traces itself (random or whatever);
  • if a trace have a greater z-order than an other, it appears on top of it;
  • if a trace have a smaller z-order value than the other, it appears below;

Veeeery useful. Right now I am strugling to have a marker to appear on top of a bunch of line plots and it is very annoying.
