It is possible to cut-and-paste graphviz SVG into a matplotlib SVG using Inkscape, but that's fairly kludgy also and can't be automated.
It would be nice to have a graphviz importer for matplotlib (something that would convert a dot stream to matplotlib artists), but that's a mid-sized development effort... It wouldn't consider it extremely difficult, but it would need someone to step up to implement it.
