Hi,

I’m looking forward to how to use Dash.jl conveniently.  
For interactive plotting, I found that `PlotlyJS.Plot` object should be returned in a callback of Dash.jl  
like [this examples](https://dash-julia.plotly.com/basic-callbacks).  
And I’m familiar with Plots.jl so I’d like to keep using the APIs of Plots.jl.  
So is there any way of extracting `PlotlyJS.Plot` object from `Plots.Plot` object?
