Anyone have thoughts on coloured lines in the Node Graph   Just like
coloured Nodes, would colouring lines help reading the flow. i.e like the
London Tube map. I'm experimenting with turning off Node Colors/AutoColor
and manual colouring important nodes.  Would it help to be able to do that
to lines?

Famous Tube map redesign; maybe some ideas in this
