Right, it was never something that you could do before with any of the gmond standard metrics anyway. So when the modular interface was added, dmax just wasn't included. In fact dmax is hardcoded to 0 in the gmond code itself. Exposing dmax on a per-metric basis through the .conf file could probably be done without too much effort. But the global host_dmax setting seems to have covered the needs of most users (at least up to now). I'm not sure what a per-metric dmax would accomplish that host_dmax doesn't already do. I guess it would just give you a little finer granularity, if that is useful???
