then it will be probably better not to call it rrdtool anymore.

rrd is a time series database implementation, so this is core to how it
works, but if you want to use a different implementation in the back
you'll be most likely able to do so by using the modular data repository
support from the python gmetad in trunk (which AFAIK has the rrdtool plugin
completed)

I am afraid there has to be also a way to extract that information for the
frontend and that part is not yet developed AFAIK or not even designed yet.
