I started doing this yesterday, thinking it would be a simple task ...
well, it was a bit more complicated than I thought. But I think it's
working now - unfortunately, it is also mixed in with some of the other 
changes that have happened since 4.2.0.

So I won't make a patch against 4.2.0, but if you really want it then
you can grab the current snapshot and build it, then copy the 
web/hobbitsvc.cgi to ~hobbit/server/bin/ and
hobbitd/webfiles/trends_form to the ~hobbit/server/web/ directory.

This has a small form at the top of the "trends" page where you can pick
how much time the graphs should cover. The default is 48 hours (as
before), but you can change that by setting TRENDSECONDS in
hobbitserver.cfg - as the name implies, it is in seconds.

The form layout on the trends page will probably change a bit, perhaps
to some drop-down boxes.
