See: https://echarts.apache.org/en/api.html#echartsInstance.setOption There's an option `replaceMerge` which work in combination with `notMerge` option. It seem like the only place to be modified is https://github.com/hustcc/echarts-for-react/blob/master/src/types.ts because https://github.com/hustcc/echarts-for-react/blob/0ab38618567b558413edde015bcb40931eb739ed/src/core.tsx#L69-L71 will automatically set this option to underlying Echart instance.
