About a month ago, the changes for the plot overlays were merged into the main plot repository and will be available in the next Racket release. Based on feedback from Ben Greenman, the implementation is different than my original prototype, but it is more flexible -- thanks to Ben for suggestions and support in getting this merged.
While the changes have not made it into a Racket release, I wrote a short blog post about how to implement some common plot overlay use cases, while the idea is still fresh in my head. You can find it here: https://alex-hhh.github.io/2018/03/interactive-overlays-with-the-racket-plot-package-update.html Best Regards, Alex.
