Interesting idea. :) Out of curiosity, have you considered a front end UI that allows for interactive time period selection? I (personally) don't like rrdtool, because it generates static graphics which don't let people select a range for further zooming in / refinement. My recent project, GlusterFlow (https://github.com/justinclift/glusterflow) is working around that by using Kibana (http://kibana.org). It's not perfect, but seems a lot better than rrdtool (so far). Any idea if it would be useful for you too?
