Show other mutation attributes as separate colours in 3D datashade?

Datashader supports shading multiple attributes of each pixel in different colours. I wonder if we could shade num_inheritors as another dimension? Might take some fiddling, but the examples here look like it might work:

These are categorial though, so maybe num_inheritors wouldn't work. We could imagine having intron/exon or something as a categorial to shade by. Worth playing with a bit anyway I think.

Yes, this would be really cool with genome annotations! I'll have a go at this once we have the genome tracks in place.
