Nice idea. Probably it's better to split the code in two, by creating a general widget to create graphs like graphviz does, another module to manage the packet parsing and evalutation, and another one to use these 2 module to produce the result. In this way the code could be shared and used for the other idea proposed by luis in the UMIT wiki, about the traffic network.
