Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I'm a bit surprised org does not have this out of the box. E.g. a minor mode
which when turned on keeps graphs marked for live update (with some tag
or something) continuously up to date.

It would be a great to show when demonstration org to somebody, that
the graph is updated live when you change something in the table.
