LGTM. thanks @tynandebold

i thought this would be a major release.

If we're truly following semver then it isn't because there aren't any breaking changes.

Looks great, and I think 5.2.0 is right version for this. I've been waiting for this so I could try out the new parallel coordinates plot on the demo website 😀

[antonymilne]

Wait, one thing I think is missing from the release notes. Give me a second and I'll add it.
