Hi Richard,

did you mean that

        it is the putting of *individual* boxes on the screen
        for each (individual result within) each row of granular results

that is the waste of time?

The current display does already collapse, inside a single cell, any

        repeated-values-within-day.

such as is demonstrated by Kirk's CRP in that screenshot

The wxPython client appears to allow a row to be selected, and --- under Mac OS 
X11 ---  to allow two (or more) non-contiguous rows to be control-click 
selected.

I cannot (on Mac OS) elicit a control-click contextual menu on any of the row 
labels but -- if that could be overcome -- maybe it would be the way to graph 
one or more rows. I agree that graphing is hugely helpful. Alternatively 
perhaps, an icon button which would act on selected rows.

Another future wishlist item would be to expand the filter / selectors which 
presently is limited to

        [  ] Your unsigned      [  ] All unsigned

whereas the expanded functionality could allow to specify subset(s) of

- kinds of tests (picklist constrained to those tests that the patient has 
actually *had*)
- time ranges of tests
- normal or abnormal-only tests
- no comment or commented-on only tests
- below target, in target or above target only
