Temperature in info box

Well, things are a bit more complicated with temperatures.
Different dive computers give you very different data. Some give you ONE temperature, which often is at the deepest depth, sometimes it's the lowest temp of the dive. Others sample every once in a while. Others every five seconds. And then there is the Mares Icon HD which gives you a random temperature +/- 5° of the real temperature on every sample, oscillating wildly :-)

So while I understand the desire to have temperature data in all samples... You often simply don't. And simply extending the temperature (e.g.) at the deepest point across the whole dive gives you WRONG data. Which is far worse than no data.
