Upvote: https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/18041 and add any additional comments and context there. In addition to making the light/dark themes more accessible, I think we should add an additional high contrast one.

There are a few plugins that let you enter css/html/js directly -- see https://grafana.com/grafana/plugins/ryantxu-ajax-panel https://github.com/srclosson/grafana-div-panel and the text panel (if the server is configured with disable_sanitize_html = true)

this is powerful, but long term tends to lead to a maintenance nightmare

since when? :)

A few things have been added that may help: 1. only visible data is queried and loaded 2. If you have multiple panels that use the same data, you can now just reuse the results (or a subset of the results) in a new panel. This will cut down on additional queries that may not be necessary

i see you still have plans to continue with uPlot testing :)

absolutely -- with everything else for 7.0 that did not make the cut. But would love to work more with your frankly amazing library :)

You can provision plugins on startup with something like: https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/installation/docker/...

Does that method support removing plugins?
