Could you explain that in more detail? I am not entirely sure if I understand 
it correctly? You want to be able to just click on the name instead of the node?

Yep, you are right about that. I will try to get the information from the 
Mozilla spreadsheet into the next version.

1 and 2 already are on my to-to list. 3 generally sounds like a good idea. The 
"problem" is, that at the moment the layout is fixed and not done by the 
web-interface (I had an earlier version where they were layed out directly in 
javascript using a force-based algorithm - but that didn't really look that 
good). In any case at the moment just filtering would leave big holes in the 
graph.
