* Things to do [0/4]

- [ ] Design an incremental format to encode forests [0/3]
  + [ ] The format consists of a sequence of "actions".  Each action
    modifies the graph as a unit.  For example, adding a vertex and
    edges are actions, and cloning a node can be an action as well.
  + [ ] The format has two functions that specific readers / writers
    should implement.  For example, the forests for the chain-rule
    machine can implement the two functions.  In the trait, the
    implementer can choose which actions are availabel, and how each
    action modifies the graph.
  + [ ] Maybe each stored file can choose to include the final graph,
    so that the displayer has the option to display only the final
    graph without going through all modifications just to produce the
    final graph.
- [ ] Implement serialization
- [ ] Implement de-serialization
- [ ] Implement display of graphs
  + [ ] Implement a graph display "server" that determines the
    coordinates to be drawn on the canvas.
  + [ ] Implement a graph display client, perhaps in Emacs, that
    actually executes the display instructions.
