I don't know of other implementations.

Yes. That would be good to add

Sorry, cannot comment on APAN, I don't use it.

For that one, I think you need to change the lm_sensors output - if
lm_sensors is sane, that will cause a non-zero exit status, which should
propagate through the plugin. The lm_sensors config file will alow you
to change things like that, IIRC.
