Hi, If I understand your request, you have to display graphically some data. I think SVG (nested in fo:fo:instream-foreign-object) is a better solution: With svg, you can indicate what is drawn first (background) and what is drawn latter (foreground).
If your chart is displayed in a unique page, I think you will free some time in this way. If not, and if each line can be drawn independently, that should be done as this too.
