e48bb2b introduces a "Graph Tidy" button which is a good start but it'd be nice to upgrade this to do force-directed placement or similar to get a really nice graph layout with minimal occlusion, intersecting edges, etc.

If this gets good enough, something like Autonomic Layouts might be worth considering ... have some way to auto-tidy every time a node is added or moved.

    On which topic:

    • perhaps we should not allow nodes to be dragged past their parents / children, so that the stratum order is always correct
    • perhaps when creating a new node we could rescale all the other nodes out of its way a little.

    ... So rather than auto-tidying we just enforce some tidiness at all times.

    It'd be nice to have some better word splitting for graph node labels as well.
