Smoothing?

[matatk]

Smoothing is a feature request that has cropped up. However, before it can be decided if AudioChart should do this, some key questions need to be answered.

1. Shouldn't the chart author provide the smoothed data and not rely on us to do it? The idea here is that the content author would provide two series; a smoothed one and a non-smoothed one. This would be helpful for both visual users, because they could see the trend line, and audio users, as they could hear it (and it'd sound smoother).
2. If an alternative rendering, such as via musical notes (), was used, would smoothing be needed?
3. If smoothing is implemented, how would the user know they're listening to a smoothed chart? (Need this to be accessible, too).
