Edge routing seems to be a bit extreme: image

What do you mean by "extreme"? Are you talking about how the arcs seem to "overshoot" at the turn points?

That is an artifact of the Brandes-Kopf layout algorithm. I've gone over it a few times and believe it is working as expected. It would be interesting to someday to use the network simplex solution from graphviz, which would not have this problem, but would be slower.
