Jacob, yes, spatial visualization based on OpenLayers and Neo4j Spatial would be something, at least as one possible layout algo that you could plug in. How are you thinking around arbitrary non-spatial info? Not sure how good the layout performance of OpenLayers is.
I remember working with Google Maps JavaScript back some years ago, and we had the same problems, over a couple of hundred markers we needed to start aggregating things on the server side due to the slowness of client side rendering. I think it is a good widget to pull in (think of it as a special layout) and keep that in mind!
