// This is an attempt to make an extremely easy to use chart that is ready to go,
//    basically the chart models with the extra glue... Queuing, tooltips, automatic resize, etc.
// I may make these more specific, like 'time series line with month end data points', etc.
//    or may make yet another layer of abstraction... common settings.
