Description Alexander Nyßen

As the Dot Graph view cannot be used to manipulate the input dot file, we should disable the interaction capabilities (e.g. to relocate and resize nodes or bend connections). We should also ensure no handles are displayed. As we could still support selection synchronization, we could think of keeping the focus and selection feedback enabled.

I think we should rather extend the interaction capabilities so that the visual changes are written back to the DOT file. Therefore, I resolve this ticket as invalid.
