Subject: Sparklines to be in ConTeXt?

Hey,
what do you people actually think about E. Tufte's Sparklines?²
They are a great and innovative thing in my mind; both in the
information mediating and the typographic sense.
There's a bare-bones LaTeX package on CTAN, but when I think about it,
this technique could find a perfect place in ConTeXt's framework (say
MetaPost, XML, Scripting and so on. There's even some kind of Ruby
implementation³).
