Hi

Because Xymon is so awesomely extensible, I now have dozens of graphs on
the trends page for many of my servers.  That makes it time-consuming to
find what I'm looking for.  The text in the graphs is not searchable, of
course, but there's no actual text on the page.

Would I'd really like is to have a text label next to each graph, so that I
can do a browser search for the graph I'm looking for.  Even better might
be a graph index at the top, to click down to the desired graph.  While it
would be nice, the text string doesn't have to be the text from the graph,
just something consistent and sensible, such as the "ALT" text (eg "disk"
or "la") which is essentially the stanza name in graphs.cfg (eg [disk] and
[la]).

Very good idea, I really would like to see this, especially for devmon as they update every minute...
