At the moment I think the best (read 'only practical') way to do it is via a wizard. The user selects a NamedQuery from the map, sets key/value parameters, and picks from the results.

How about expanding the control panel capabilities? Current control panel opens a new "Object Editor" window on every query run. We can do two things:

* (optionally) open the results in the same Object Editor.
I see where you are coming from, but this would introduce quite some complexity because the automatic graph layout algorithm relies on the graph being fully connected. I have seen an application where dummy edges are introduced to counter this, but it compromises the algorithm to a certain extent - in the normal case the layout isn't as good.

Just a note: the latest version of GEF seems to allow for graphs which are not fully connected - nice! So I'll work this in.
