How can I have a report display on a form?

[Blair5]

I have a requirement to display a metric report on a form. I understand I can have a UI macro added to the form through a formatter, but how do I get the report to render within the macro? Is this possible?

Seems like in many cases, there could be multiple Metrics running. You've seen the Metrics Timeline?

How can I have it display all the time without having someone click somewhere?

If you configure the form layout there is an option in the available column labeled * Chart.   If you add that to the form and save the configuration when you go back to the form you will have the option to add a report to the form.   It looks like you can add any report that you want.   There are even some options there for modifying the report based on values on the form, although I haven't used those so I don't know how exactly they work.
