How to add colored background bars in plotly.js chart

问题

How can "plot bands", or shaded areas in a chart, be added to a plotly-js chart? Something looking like this picture:

(Which comes from a different product: Highcharts)

Specifically, I would want to add background color to some portions (multiple of them) of a plotly chart, specifying [xFrom, xTo] coordinates for X, and painting the entire Y range, with arbitrary colors. For example, highlighting time windows of particular interest in a range (such as anomalies).

This example is from the documentation but is what you're looking for (highlighting the background of a range in a time series chart):
