Rudimentary funnels / sankey chart with hit referrer #165

Right now we have information of the Referrer of a hit. It would be interesting to create a Sankey chart when the referrer is in the same domain, which would give a rough visualisation of the site "Funnel".

This would not always work, as the right referrer policy would need to be set. But I think it would be a major feature that would differentiate Shynet from other privacy conscious analytics projects.

I've also been wondering if it would be possible to include a session identifier on the referrer to allow building analytics funnels without ever needing to use cookies.

Yeah, this is a good idea. Let’s keep discussing it.
