`configure_subplots` now needs to import `pyplot` (because that'show we can spin up a new figure as needed), but when relying onembedding we could well reach that point with an already runninginteractive framework, pyplot never imported, and an incompatiblercParams["backend"] (which had not been read yet). For example, run`examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_tk_sgskip.py` with a non-tkbackend set in your matplotlibrc: clicking on the the configure_subplotsbutton triggers a "cannot load backend 'foo' which requires the 'foo'interactive framework, as 'bar' is currently running".Instead, use a helper to safely import pyplot when another interactiveframework may already be running. The list of frameworks that`_get_running_interactive_framework` returns is fixed, so we can justhardcode the mapping. (We are going to ignore the user-set`rcParams["backend"]` anyways.)
Does this catch a case not covered by#18245 ? |

feels a bit like epicycles, but still suspect that this is moving us in the direction of a simplification. |

configure_subplots
now needs to importpyplot
(because that'show we can spin up a new figure as needed), but when relying on
embedding we could well reach that point with an already running
interactive framework, pyplot never imported, and an incompatible
rcParams["backend"] (which had not been read yet). For example, run
examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_tk_sgskip.py
with a non-tkbackend set in your matplotlibrc: clicking on the the configure_subplots
button triggers a "cannot load backend 'foo' which requires the 'foo'
interactive framework, as 'bar' is currently running".
Instead, use a helper to safely import pyplot when another interactive
framework may already be running. The list of frameworks that
_get_running_interactive_framework
returns is fixed, so we can justhardcode the mapping. (We are going to ignore the user-set
rcParams["backend"]
anyways.)followup to#16818, especially#16818 (review) (which this does not fix, it's just the easy first step).
