When some graph nodes lack assigned location/size, the code currently assigns them to regularly-space grid positions, just so they are all visible. There are more sophisticated graph layout strategies available, such as potential-field methods. See "Drawing Graphs Nicely Using Simulated Annealing" by Davidson & Harel (1996).
