On the HP servers, while the threshold and current temperature are available, 
there is also a value indicating whether the threshold has been exceeded or 
not ... but I guess not all devices will give you that ...

I think it may be feasible to get it in pretty soon (before 0.3.1). It may be 
best if you can file a feature request on the sourceforge tracker, (if the 
"beta" tracker doesn't work, use the old one at 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=160720) so that you and Tom can both 
follow and test patches not in svn ...

Some sample data would also help.
