Just not a big fan of triangle markers 😕

Is there a way to change the `:auto` order for markers?

// this occurs when you need to do hacky stuff to get a plot to work

(most recently, to make colored scatters work with PGFPlots, but I’ve ran into this before)

**edit:** related to this, can you make `group=` set the item in the default order?

like if i have 4 groups, and the first one is missing in a few plots, can i have those ones skip circles and go directly to squares?
