Comment (by ncohen):

 > But to plot a poset we need to plot a digraph. So either it's ok if the
 acyclic layout of graphs always points up.

 It is the default behaviour in Sage. If it is messed up when dot2tex gets
 installed then let *this* be fixed, and let us move on.

 They chose that an arrow `a->b` meant that "a is larger than b" and
 `Posets` do the opposite. I do not think that it is worth more
 consideration than that.
