Yes, essentially Instaviz will be for quick-and-dirty graphs, Graphviz  
for heavy-duty and I'll find a way (or ways) to sync the two. You'll  
probably be able to view everything that can be generated via  
Graphviz, but not necessarily edit it.

I'd still need a list of common attributes for quick-and-dirty. (I  
suspect one man's quick-and-dirty graph is another man's heavy-duty  
graph, though.)
