Yes, I agree. The change will be in CVS soon.

The pie chart requires the GD library to be compiled into your mod_php 
apache module. If you wanted to help, you could make a html tables 
version that gives the same information, as not everyone has the GD 
module for the pie chart.

What we need is this (made with an HTML table):

Cluster Load Percentages

100+	|XXXXXXXXXXXX
75-100	|XXXXXX
50-75	|XXX
25-50	|XXXXXXX
0-25		|
down	|X

There are several variations on this theme that would work (all colors 
in one bar to illustrate their sum is 100). The "width" table cell 
attribute would be useful here.

Let us know if you can help with the coding of this project,
