In master the graph is moved onto the canvas, **but** because the circles 
(nodes) have a non-zero radius **and** the generator doesn't know what kind of 
radius is used to draw the circles, it doesn't move the nodes to strictly-
positive locations such that the radius of the drawn circle would fall inside 
the canvas. That's a possible adaptation for the massage-to-canvas function, 
but would introduce knowing something about rendering (or alternately, the 
renderer should massage a graph if it would be drawn badly).

As for generated graphs overlapping .. that's a different issue. I don't have 
an intuition for what would make the most sense there -- graphs *may* overlap. 
Perhaps coloring each newly-generated graph differently, or making it easy to 
select-all-connected-nodes or a "re-layout nicely" routine would help.
