I found this thread from a few years ago on streamplots:

> Hello, I don’t have a strong understanding of how Plots work, but as far as I know, it serves as an API that uses backend plotting systems, like matplotlib or gr. This allows the user to use similar (if not identical) syntax between different backends. Hopefully my understanding here is correct, but I’d appreciate any corrections! Based on this, I would like to use the streamplot function from the PyPlot backend inside Plots. Is this doable? I have tried to test it like this: using Plots py…

Anyone know if this feature has since been added? No hate to makie, its a great library, just would prefer to use a single plotting library if possible.
