Regression with autobins

[nicolaskruchten]

Found this while upgrading RCE for 1.43.0 but I think it was introduced earlier: https://codepen.io/nicolaskruchten/pen/LMNGNP?editors=0010

@nicolaskruchten Your demo is working well with 1.41.2; but not using 1.42.0.

It's probably from #3044 (to was released in 1.42.0).

Can I ask, what's the expected behavior?

[etpinard]

For sure, we want newPlot and react to result in the same graph, but how should that graph look like?

@etpinard Could you please try this demo

what's the expected behavior?

same as an empty scatter or other trace... it should get added to fullData etc... right now the editor gets wedged.

[nicolaskruchten]

It might be worth adding a test that guarantees that for all trace types there's clearly defined behaviour for just {type: 'type'} as the entry in data... Basically we don't need to show anything, but we also can't raise an error and we do need a full entry in fullData that allows the editor to populate its widgets etc.
