The inline matplotlib plots are shown as png and look blurry on my 4k monitor. Increasing the plots dpi only scales it up. Is it possible to display them as a svg instead?

I already tried locally changing:
marimo /_output /mpl .py

Plain Text

def _internal_show(canvas: FigureCanvasBase) -> None:
    buf = io.BytesIO()
    buf.seek(0)
    canvas.figure.savefig(buf, format="png", bbox_inches="tight")
    plt.close(canvas.figure)
    mimetype: KnownMimeType = "image/png"
    plot_bytes = base64.b64encode(buf.getvalue())
    CellOp.broadcast_console_output(
        channel=CellChannel.MEDIA,
        mimetype=mimetype,
        data=build_data_url(mimetype=mimetype, data=plot_bytes),
        cell_id=None,
        status=None,
    )

        cell_id=None,
        status=None,
    )

but it still shows up as a png.
