ROS Feature: plot transformations `/tf` between any couple of frames about plotjuggler HOT 2 OPEN

not impossible, but it is not on the roadmap. Maybe 2-3 days of work (that I can not do, right now)

If any company wants to sponsor this feature, let me know.

The work-around I've used for this (and a lot of other things) is a utility node I made called old_tf_to_new_tf in the tf_demo package where you can look up the relationship between any two frames and publish that relationship as a new single transform on /tf (be sure to name the child differently to avoid multiple parents). There's a python and C++ version that are mostly the same, the C++ version is faster but if you want to make modifications start with the python.

Here's an example of few getting launched:

It's just ros1 but a ros2 version wouldn't be too hard to make.
