add Puerto Rico and other territories to U.S. states geo choropleth
I'd like the option of adding U.S. territories (specifically Puerto Rico) to the U.S. states choropleth, especially in plotly.js. Ideally, the territories would float below the U.S. map similarly to Alaska and Hawaii. Puerto Rico should especially be added because it's so close to becoming a state. For people who only need the 50 states, it should be an option to include or exclude different territories.
I've asked if it's possible twice within the plotly community forums and have also researched on stackoverflow and elsewhere online--seems like this feature does not exist yet.
Thank you @yimej for your interest in plotly.js and suggesting this feature! I don't have time to look at this at the moment, but I agree it would be useful to display all the territories and states in one compact figure.
Is there a possible ETA on when this would be looked at / worked on? I love using Plotly at work and find the interactive features especially useful. Would like to avoid using some other library to render Puerto Rico on my choropleths and have them look out of place next to the rest of my pretty Plotly visualizations!
It seems like the following package implements the requested feature: https://github.com/rveciana/d3-composite-projections . Unfortunately, it dropped support for d3v3 since version 0.4.0. Either we backport the albersUsaTerritories projection into 0.4.0 or wait for Plotly to upgrade to d3v4.
Adding a bump to this; any update on this, or workaround? @antoinerg
Was hoping to use Plotly for a project, but Puerto Rico needs to be on the map for it.

Were you able to find a solution for this?
