Of all the people, past and present, getting credit for making Audacity, for those of us who actually use Audacity, who amongst them will be the one superstar to make Horizontal grid lines?
When editing wave forms of live concert recordings to a given max dB, Audacity lacks a horizontal marker.
Pretty please? Someone?

We don't have horizontal rulers because the left edge is the wrong scale. Note the left edge is in percent and the sound meters are in dB. The waveform left edge should be in "linear dB" like other apps.

So the real job since we're going to be in there anyway, is to fix both.
