It's not a big thing. Mainly it's about different shapes for the
differnet node types, e.g. a dashed rombus for VariableSet or a
different style for input nodes.

Additionally, I added the variable names of the variables in the input
nodes - as this is very important information in the graph.
Unfortunately this is not that nice at the moment. Every variable name
is written in one row. That's not nice if you have 10 - 15 input
variables... The alternative was to write all names in one line - what
isn't nicer :-) There should be some heuristics, e.g having 9 variabels
writting them in three lines (square root) or defining a maximum lenght
of characters per line...

Additionally we added cancellation (per workflow) and timeouts (per
node). (Technically this resets the activated node(s) and activates a
defined node.) This information is available via dotted and dashed
lines. Also we added arbitrary jumping (we found a concept called
cursors in some Ruby on Rails workflow implementation which we adapted)
- information is also available in the graph via a different style of
the edges.

If you need more information, I guess I can send you the graphics of
some test cases.

Additional information about the other stuff (cancellation,
timeouts, ...) followes. But I guess I have to prepare the code for
contributing in my spare time and to clean up some parts. Therefore it
could take a while...

Have a nice day

Thomas
