Plotly.js: When subplot axes are linked, should the zoom window trigger in every subplot?

Consider this stacked subplot:

The axes are linked and zoom is only enabled in the x direction.

When you click-drag to zoom, only one subplot shows the zoom preview window. But after zoom executes, all 3 subplots are zoomed in. This is disorienting when the x axes are linked like in this plot. It looks like you're going to zoom-in on only one subplot, but then all 5 subplots update.

Here's another great subplot example that could really benefit from a coordinated zoom box:

Any progress on this issue? Is it possible to have a zoom region over all lines at once?

is this resolved by the new axis-matching attr? #1549
