Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-4101:
-----------------------------------

i like the concept and it is a bit similar to the intent described in 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NIFI/NiFi+Feature+Proposals

The more we can do to make flows extremely clear/readable the better.  We'll 
have to think through some UX aspects of this for sure.

> I'd like to be able to create something like ports to transport flowfiles 
> around a process group to avoid having criss-crossed relationship lines like 
> in the attached screenshot.
> I drew something that represents what I'm talking about and attached a 
> sketch. I recreated the flow from the screenshot using portals.
> Portals would kind of be like funnels in that they don't have functionality 
> of their own and have a queue for each relationship attached to them.
