Description

__Proposal:__
When hovering a mouse over a dashboard cell, indicate the same time in other cells

__Current behavior:__
No linking between cells

__Desired behavior:__
Make it like Chronograf, so I can see an immediate correlation between the data in one cell and the data in other cells

__Alternatives considered:__
None

__Use case:__
Immediate indication of the selected time in other cells would help in diagnosing which condition is most likely to be the root cause of a problem.

Research direction

Start by locating the dashboard cell hover handling and the existing Chronograf behavior referenced in the proposal. Implement synchronized time highlighting across cells, then verify that hovering a time in one cell immediately indicates the same time in the other cells.
