Description Felix Rieger CLA 2010-11-10 07:57:35 EST 
In the tree-based rule editor, edges between named nodes look like this:
Edge Node1 -> Node2
Whereas undefined edges simply display
Edge
When creating an Edge where one Node is unnamed, the current implementation will display this edge as
Edge
creating the impression that the Edge's source and target haven't been set yet. This can easily lead to confusion, so it's better to display Edges between unnamed Nodes as
Edge ->
Edge Node1 ->
Edge -> Node2
(source and target unnamed; target unnamed; source unnamed)
which simply indicates a properly defined Edge where sorce and/or target nodes are unnamed.
