It is much easier to see the overall how-things-are-connected in a diagram. So also being able to generate visualizations of graph differences, will improve usefulness a lot.

Ideally we can use the-graph for this

Right now we emit one-line-per-change, basically without any formatting. This is OK for when there is no formatting capabilities, like when output is redirected to a file. However it is hard to see context, like grouping etc.

Might be better to basically render the new state of the graph FBP-like, but have red-colored parts, and green-colored for additions compared to the old state. Basically similar to git diff --word-diff=color

This renderer should support both consoles (using control characters), and HTML (using CSS). Thinking initially that CSS should be inlined. Though should possibly use semantic class-names from the get-go.

Visual diffing (#2) will likely have some challenges in showing the details of a change. Complimenting it with text-based diffing is one possibility, but is not a very integrated experience.

Since the graphs are often created using an interactive editor, would be nice to be able to also do diffing there and make use all the regular tools for navigating/showing/hiding information.
Ideally the tool would be capable enough that it can also be used to pick changes from a diff, for instance to resolve a merge conflict.
