power already has 

power[1-*]_average
power[1-*]_input_highest
power[1-*]_input_lowest
power[1-*]_reset_history

Also, turns out that the following attributes for current sensors already exist.

curr[1-*]_average
curr[1-*]_lowest
curr[1-*]_highest
curr[1-*]_reset_history
curr_reset_history

so I decided to stick with that terminology and use it for voltage and temperature sensors
in my proposed patch.

I thought about using peak too, but since lowest/highest is already used,
think it is better to stick with it.

Thanks,
