I think the point here is to use the existing implementation as-is but after wrapping dom calls in Comlink proxy. Though it occurs to me that we should just wrap...

Once we implement pyodide/pyodide#1503, we can remove the async caveat. (I've already started working on pyodide/pyodide#1503, @joemarshall did the hard part, we just have to figure out how to integrate...

So I think the point here is this though: matplotlib has an API that consumes user input events and produces an image. The DOM is an API that produces user...
