Wow. This makes for a very busy graph page.

My $.02:

Instead of having a field to change the graph name, how about a small
button that says 'Rename Graph' or something.

Also, I think that the default for scale should be 'Range from Plugin',
although the automatic range does seem to work better in some cases.
Shouldn't Range from Plugin Rounded/As Percent be determined by the UOM
of the metric? If the UOM is '%', then the Range from plugin should be
as percent. If we can do that, then this menu would be less busy.

Graphs are loading slower now, I think Yves mentioned some possible
fixes for this.

To make the top box a little easier to navigate, perhaps the 'Graph
Size' drop down menu can be moved down to the 'Draw Graph' Area. This
might be a good place for the 'Rename Graph' button/field as well.

For the Guassion Avg. in the Smooth Plot, it might be good to have some
context sensitive help here. Maybe a link (What's this?) back to docs on
the PP web site that explain what it means and how it can be used.
