Modifying Cacti graphs to look like Horizon Graphs

Hi,

Is it possible to modify cacti graphs (using the current UI) to look like Horizon Graphs (http://www.panopticon.com/Horizon-Graphs)? If there is none, do you think its useful to have that kind of presentation since I'm planning to make one.

I like the idea wherein a data uses a darker color if it exceeds a certain threshold. To better explain my thought I made a sample scenario below.

Traffic on 12 MN = 100K
Traffic on 1 AM = 200K
Traffic on 2 AM = 100K
Traffic on 3 AM = 200K
Traffic on 4 AM = 1M

With the current cacti view the 100-200K data could be unseen due to the 1M data that came in.
If the cacti view had something like Horizon Graphs, the trend continues (between 100-200K max data) while the 1M data would have a darker color to emphasize that it is more than 100K.

More example can be found in the link below. Just click the Demo tab.
