Marginal histogram visualization?

Has anyone used marginal histograms in their Splunk dashboards?  It's similar to piping to addtotals and/or addcoltotals, except instead of a number, you'd display a bar/column.  It's essentially a melding of a statistical table and a bar/column chart, in one object/panel.  (You can do this in Excel for right-hand marginal histograms using conditional formatting to display a bar within the cell.  Screenshot example included below.  NOTE: the bottom marginal histogram was manipulated, because Excel doesn't let you do it that way.)

I would like to be able to display a chart like the one in the included screenshot, so that we can quickly (visually) identify the highest-activity application and/or days.  Ideally, it would be nice to be able to put both margins on (one on the right, that sums the data in the row, and one on the bottom, that sums the data in the column).
