Visualize resources / transfer sizes for sort / comparison

Being able to visualize relative Resource sizes in the Network Tab would be useful.

We have text numbers, and the ability to sort on those numbers, but having a visualization would be easier / better in many circumstances.

One possible solution would be to add multiple sorts to the "waterfall" / visualization table column.

Examples sorts could include:

  • Sort by Times
    => Show a Timing Visualization (current waterfall)
    - start time
    - end time
    - latency
    - duration

  • Sort by Sizes
    => Show a Size Visualization (maybe colored by type)
    - transfer sizes
    - resource sizes

One approach that was mocked up in the past was:
<https://webkit.org/b/147523> Web Inspector: Add backbars to sequential data in data grid

The image looks pretty neat:

It looks good. The right-edge of the cell looks odd for bars that round to a single pixel, and become nothing but vertical border.

Maybe we should drop bars that are only going to be a pixel or two.
