A class problem in Firefox telemetry: some implementers used enumerated histograms when they probably meant to use a linear histogram. See this example:

We have everything we need to coerce this into the percentile view.

Either we add a toggle or we just keep a list of probes that should be percentile-based.

We're showing these in a slightly better way now, but it's still a bit janky. Holding off on further work on this until we get specific requirements / requests related to specific probes.
