[Moose-dev] Mondrian suggestions

Hello.

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong list for suggestions for
Mondrian, or if what I suggest has been implemented and I just haven't
been able to find it.

Missing layout: Rectangle packing.  There have been quite a few times
when it would be -really- convenient to have the smallest possible
rectangle, but all of the layouts seem to waste space to some degree,
unless the data really -should- be stored in a straight line.

Missing feature: a way to have labels which are always visible, but
perhaps only legible on the larger nodes.  [What inspires this is
trying to look at a callgraph using SugiyamaLayout, which works very
nicely, but not being able to label the nodes without it suddenly
being several times wider; the visual information gets entirely lost
in the sprawl.]

Regards;
Katerina Barone-Adesi
