Apple has the makings of such a framework already - its called
GraphKit.
If you want GraphKit to become available as a supported Cocoa
framework PLEASE enter an enhancement bug - you can reference the
same bug my request was dupped to: 3320659 [its low number tells you
its a long standing request!].
Even if you don't care - enter a bug anyway, and help the rest of
us! 1,000 more bugs on this issue and we'll surely see GraphKit in
the next big-cat release!
Rather than asking for a specific SPI to be made public, you'll likely
do better for yourself if you file a general feature request,
explaining what you need in terms of graphing, what sort of features
you're interested in, the volume of and how you manage your data, and
so forth... there are many, many ways to implement a graphing API, and
there's no point in Apple providing one without knowing what most
developers actually expect from it. For example, there's a very big
difference between what say Keynote needs, in terms of graphing, and
what a scientific visualisation program needs.
