Not sure if that is the right thing to do, as it would seem that a user
configurable max_graphs would make more sense integrated with an already
available user configurable show_hosts.

The original intention for "max_graphs" was probably as a system configuration
to reduce the load in the web server to generate all the graphs for a
cluster that has way too many nodes and making this user configurable will
defeat that purpose.

Not sure if a good idea, as using hidden form values doesn't allow for
URLs that are completely representative of the parameters needed to build
the page and therefore will prevent people sending around ganglia URLs that
are meaningful.

Agree that the URL is getting polluted and this could be a way to solve that
problem, but as you point our implicitly in your patch, our current handling
of GET variables is incomplete, and adding yet another parameter passing
mechanism will make it even more obscure (BTW we also use cookies in a somehow
buggy way as well for the same reason).
