#' @rdname plotClusterExprs
#' @title Plot expression distributions by cluster
#' 
#' @description Plots smoothed densities of marker intensities by cluster.

#' @param x a \code{\link[SingleCellExperiment]{SingleCellExperiment}}.
#' @param k character string specifying which clustering to use;
#'   valid values are \code{names(cluster_codes(x))}.
#' @param features a character vector specifying 
#'   which antigens to include; valid values are
#'   \code{"type"/"state"} for \code{type/state_markers(x)} 
#'   if \code{rowData(x)$marker_class} have been specified; 
#'   a subset of \code{rownames(x)}; NULL to use all features.
