height argument to output_widget does nothing

• shinywidgets version: 0.2.1
• Python version: 3.10
• Operating System: Ubuntu

Description

Within a shiny app, setting the height argument in output_widget doesn't actually change the height

What I Did

This code works, but shiny does not modify the height of the widget

output_widget("map", width='800px', height='100px'),

Currently you need to also use the ipywidgets layout API, which effectively sizes the contents of the output_widget() container. So, if you prefer to control sizing through fixed sizes in output_widget(), consider setting layout.height = "100%" (and layout.width = "100%" if need be).

Here's an actual example with ipyleaflet
