In hierarchy view, labels of nodes often overlap. Changing node positions and organization in graph via drag n drop is not retained and the re-organization needs to occur fresh each time.

Additionally, there is no consistency to where node types manifest. For example, an address linked to node A might be left side or right side while a second address linked to node A is on the opposite side. This would not be an issue if repositioning of the nodes was retained to the last state. If retention is not possible, then positioning similar nodes within the same quadrant is helpful.

Ability to retain positioning in saveable views would be really helpful.

And a "beautify" icon to make the nodes float more freely to give the node labels space.

@tracure1337, @FarallonWest I'm currently working on a feature to store nodes positions on the graph. It needs quite a bit of rethinking but should be up in a couple of days !
