[Question #217295]: Events (comments) timeline to go with graph

 

New question #217295 on Graphite:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/217295

We are trying to move to Graphite for monitoring our system performance.  We'd like to have an event graph where the data points have viewable comments.  Circonus offers this sort of thing.  They have a timeline that runs separately from the dataline.  It allows for entries that have a title section (so you can give a brief description of the event), a category (planned/unplanned/anomoly), a start and stop time and a section for details.   You can hover over the datapoint and see what happened.  
It makes for a nice way to track network/server/system events to data changes.  
Is there a way to do the same in graphite - short of making a graph for every scenario?  I saw one answer that suggested it for events like full moons, but I'm talking about unplanned events that impact performance and it would be nice to have them displayed together.
Anyone have a suggestion?
