Yep.  It works for data that is still a function of X, but isn't 
necesaarily monotonically increasing.  I'd hope that this handles most 
cases where people ask for an XY chart without doing a general f(x,y) 
and dealing with all of the details.

And I know that I probably should have jumped in a couple weeks ago, but 
the chart is really a graph with lots of optimizations to speed things 
up.  These optimizations are a nightmare to get perfect, which is why 
there are oddities with grids on dense charts, and even more artifacts 
when using wide lines or points on dense data.

So, eventually, a general X versus Y chart may be added, but it would 
help if the use cases to help evaluate how often this is needed and the 
performance numbers were offered up in addition to the gimme-gimme 
requests.  That way it can be compared to the other features in the 
pipeline.
