Creating a link between two nodes, not their ports

[mkhoussid]

Suppose I have two nodes, each with an arbitrary amount of ports. I'm trying to figure out if I can create a link between these two DefaultNodeModel components, not between their ports. It seems as though the link method only exists on DefaultPortModel.

Any ideas, am I missing something?

setup a phantom port that spans the size of the node and implement custom links which offset the arrow so that they touch the border. I am doing this in my own project, I cant yet share the source code but I may add a similar demo in the project gallery.
