As well as being able to say "top-n" applications or whatever, I'd also like to be able to say:
- "bottom-n". Sometimes you're interested in the very very tiny details which can get lost in the "others" category.
- "top-n without the first one". Sometimes a bulk activity like a backup will take up (for example) 95% of the volume for a specified period, reducing everything else to next-to-nothing on the graph. By saying "top-n without the first one" I'd be able to ignore the bulk activity and concentrate on everything else.
