usability improvement to funnel:conversion time #13694

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Conversion time funnels are often right skewed with long tails, which makes them awkward to display on a dashboard if we try to show all the buckets in a fixed width. A lot of the time, the information value is in the first few buckets and the last bucket, but not in between.

Don't try to show all buckets when this insight is on a dashboard (since it squeezes and doesn't scroll). Instead, show where most of the data is — 50 buckets each with .01% of the values are not interesting. (easiest fix may just be to scroll)

On a tangent: You control the conversion window, which directly affects how long the tail is, so for this specific case, you might want to reduce the conversion window to a day or 12 hours.
