Adjusting Y axis's will help that use case as well, but even without the
crazy values, the need to unclutter the plot quickly is still very worth
while.

The current reordering behavior introduces another problem for me, I have
multiple plots on a page and the order/colors of the lines between plots
easily gets messed up and you don't realize that the red line no longer
correlates.

I assume the new scheme will maintain the order so that the "red" line if
visible will be the top item always when the legend is drawn.

i.e

I have Arndale and KS data for min,max,average, that is three plots each
with both boards on them. On all of the plots Arndale will always be first
then KS because they always sort alphabetically.
When I gray them out there is no reordering, the legend goes gray for that
board and the line disappears on the plot, the plot re scales.
