 * New "special arguments" `stroke`, `strokes`, `alpha_stroke`, `span`, and `spans` were added for easier control over the stroke (i.e., outline) appearance of various (filled) graphical marks. For an overview, see the **sf** blog post linked to in the bullet point above and the new package demos (list all demos with `demo(package = "plotly")`).
 * The selection (i.e., linked-brushing) mode can now switch from 'transient' to 'persistent' by holding the 'shift' key. It's still possible to _force_ persistent selection by setting `persistent = TRUE` in `highlight()`, but `persistent = FALSE` (the default) is now recommended since it allows one to switch between [persistent/transient selection](https://plotly-book.cpsievert.me/linking-views-without-shiny.html#transient-versus-persistent-selection) in the browser, rather than at the command line.
 * The new `partial_bundle()` function makes it easy to leverage [partial bundles of plotly.js](https://github.com/plotly/plotly.js#partial-bundles) for reduced file sizes and faster render times.
+* The `config()` function gains a `locale` argument for easily changing localization defaults (see #1270). Among other things, this makes it possible to change the language used when hovering over modebar buttons.
 * One may now inform `ggplotly()` about the relevant **shiny** output size via `session$clientData`. This ensures `ggplotly()` sizing is closer to **ggplot2** sizing, even on window resize. For an example, run `plotly_example("shiny", "ggplotly_sizing")`.
 * Instead of an error, `ggplotly(NULL, "message")` and `plotly_build(NULL, "message")` now returns `htmltools::div("message")`, making it easier to relay messages in shiny when data isn't yet ready to plot (see #1116)
 * The `animation_button()` function gains a `label` argument, making it easier to control the label of an animation button generated through the `frame` API (see #1205).
