This applies to `range`, `tick0`, and annotation and image positions.\r\n- [ ] remove support for dates provided as epoch milliseconds\r\n- [ ] remove the distinction between axis name and axis id (ie `xaxis2` vs `x2`) probably by only using the name.\r\n- [ ] rename current gl marker symbol `'cross'` -\u003e `'cross-thin'` (i.e. revert https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js/pull/1482/commits/c0eb06599db481f2137ed97e79bab5cb2bc31351)","author":{"url":"https://github.com/etpinard","@type":"Person","name":"etpinard"},"datePublished":"2016-04-13T15:16:18.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":63},"url":"https://github.com/420/plotly.js/issues/420"}
