Read the related NoFlo issue noflo/noflo#62 to see a little bit more on this

Could this node grouping be a lighter version of subgraphs?

If you have multiple instances of the same Graph in a graph, then editing one edits them all, correct? So a group of nodes could be collapsed in the UI only. If that group is copied and then changed internally, then there isn't any change in the original group.

With autolayout #23 we could design some nice interactions for working with groups: pinch to collapse / expand.

I like being able to collapse groups! This would bring us the inline subgraphs capability that @subtleGradient has been asking for. Want to do a proto?
