#' Add components to a plot
#'
#' `+` is the key to constructing sophisticated ggplot2 graphics. It
#' allows you to start simple, then get more and more complex, checking your
#' work at each step.
#'
#' @section What can you add?:
#' You can add any of the following types of objects:
#'
#'   - An [aes()] object replaces the default aesthetics.
#'   - A layer created by a `geom_` or `stat_` function adds a
#'     new layer.
#'   - A `scale` overrides the existing scale.
#'   - A [theme()] modifies the current theme.
#'   - A `coord` overrides the current coordinate system.
#'   - A `facet` specification overrides the current faceting.
#'
#' To replace the current default data frame, you must use `%+%`,
#' due to S3 method precedence issues.
#'
#' You can also supply a list, in which case each element of the list will
#' be added in turn.
#'
#' @param e1 An object of class [ggplot()] or a [theme()].
#' @param e2 A plot component, as described below.
#' @seealso [theme()]
#' @export
#' @method + gg
#' @rdname gg-add
#' @examples
#' base <-
#'  ggplot(mpg, aes(displ, hwy)) +
#'  geom_point()
#' base + geom_smooth()
#'
#' # To override the data, you must use %+%
#' base %+% subset(mpg, fl == "p")
#'
#' # Alternatively, you can add multiple components with a list.
#' # This can be useful to return from a function.
#' base + list(subset(mpg, fl == "p"), geom_smooth())
