Someone else suggested that, but unfortunately we don't have enough
information as gnubg doesn't store any equity for moves with no legal
moves.

A bit.

That's why I suggested the use of relational database for the players'
records, so users can make their own reports instead of having us
implement 1000 different reports.

That's also why I suggested that some (or all) of the graph routines
export to comma separated files that users can import into the favourite
spreadsheet or graph software.  Alternatively use gnuplot (or another
open source program) as a "backend" for drawing graphs.
