Thanks, Dan, this is really helpful!
I added your recommendations to this ticket for the visualization of our funnel metrics:

And I agree that a Sankey diagram would be wonderful for our purposes — even if we have to
create it manually for now. Any recommended tools that would be easy to use and would let
us copy and paste our metrics data to quickly create such a diagram?
Much appreciated,
Fabrice

Any suggestions for the best way to visualize the data
once we have it? Are there some existing LIMN graphs that would be well-suited for a
funnel analysis like this one? Or should we simply use a standard line graph as we do for
other descriptive metrics studies?
Limn doesn't have many graph types but it might have a decent one for this purpose:

So you could have Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, ... on your X axis, then the number of people
who made it through each step on your Y axis.
For a better funnel visualization, we should really support Sankey diagrams:
