ggplotly geom_line vertical orientation is not working

[ildnomde]

ggplot2's geom_line allows setting the y-axis as the independent variable, by plotting in the order of how x is arranged:

library(tidyverse)
library(plotly)

c2 = c(1,2,3,4)
c1 = c(3,2,1,4)

dataset = data.frame(x=c1,y=c2)

p = ggplot(dataset %>%
         arrange(y), aes(x=x, y=y))+ 
  geom_point()+
  geom_line(orientation="y")+
  labs(
    y = "Depth", x = "Maximum concentration", 
  )+
  scale_y_reverse()
p

which results in:

however, this does not carry over when the plot is converted to plotly:
g = ggplotly(p) g

I noted that the plotly documentation does mention orientation as well.

Hi @ildnomde. I believe this issue belongs in the plotly.R repo (this is the repo for plotly.py). Would you mind opening it there?
