Currently it seems that for sunburst plots the 'plotly_click' event_data is only available after clicking the root and leafs of the plot.
I'm wondering whether this behaviour is intentional and inherited by plotly.js or not.

Please see the following example and a workaround I came up with using
onclick, which I first posted here:
