I was hoping that eventually we would get more overall control of the graphing. 
In addition to being able to manually set axis-scaling, it would be really nice 
to be able to also do the following:

- Specify customer colors for graph lines. Right now the latency and loss colors 
are very similar so its sometimes hard to tell what your looking at in a graph. 
Or at least make loss and latency lines contrasting colors like red and blue.

- Be able to plot other values on the graphs (minimum latency, average latency, 
maximum latency, mean deviation, etc) like we used to be able to do in older 
versions of the PSToolkit.

- Not sure if this is possible, but it would be nice to be able to specify the 
sample interval for data plotted on the graph. For example, be able to specify a 
5-min average, 30-min average, etc when creating a graph. Right now it seems the 
sample interval is hard set depending on the time frame you select (the 1week 
graph seems to be hard set to 1-hour average, 3day graph seems to be hard set to 
5-min average, etc).
