Right now we have pages displaying e.g. disk-related graphs for a single host, and pages displaying a bunch of various graphs, again per host.

Think about how best to slice this the other way and allow viewing a group of hosts' graphs at once.

Potential groups:

* All hosts for a given website, i.e. if one has multi-tenancy on a collection of servers, you don't just want "servers 1-3", you want "all servers that serve anything related to site A".
* All hosts serving a given role, e.g. web / db
* Combinations of these

Implementation could be lists of static hostnames and host patterns, in config files, with keyed names, and aliases as well (so a group can be set up that consists solely or partially of other groups.)
