How often you need to change the height of chart(s)?
Some people using big screens to monitor their network so more height for charts would be useful (for maps, etc.)
I have to change the height of charts more often on "Public" views. Locations that views are displayed and the users do not directly interact with the view's data.
For example, for use on the projectors in the SOC/NOC, on a TV in managers' offices, in the open areas near each of the support teams, etc. Since scrolling and clicking is not an option for us in these environments, the ability to reduce the amount of white space displayed allows for more pertenant data to be presented to the users.
All of these groups have "personal" views that they use on their workstation for working issues. Those "personal" views are more standard.
