You may find it easier to do much of the work outside of rrd. But I'm drawing some similar lines. I haven't done all the work to make the dates come out nice, though.
Something like:
[...]
"DEF:scratch=$rrd_file:scratch:AVERAGE",
# Calculate slope
"VDEF:slope=scratch,LSLSLOPE",
"VDEF:int=scratch,LSLINT",
# Graph trend line
"CDEF:trend=scratch,POP,slope,COUNT,*,int,+",
"LINE:trend#00FF00",
# Find regions where trend is less than 0
"CDEF:sub=trend,NEGINF,1,LIMIT",
"VDEF:first_sub=sub,FIRST",
"GPRINT:first_sub:Predicted empty %F:strftime",
# Vertical line at that point
"VRULE:first_sub#FF0000:exhaustion point",
[...]
Note that in my case I'm looking for when the graph hits zero, not when it hits 100.
You'll probably want to lock down the vertical graph limits to keep the line from extending them too far.
