A new pane of controls allowing the force layout parameters to be adjusted, including a gravity force, pinning to top / floor at bottom

Toggle nodes/cells/links on and off, stroke and colour etc

Allow the user to fiddle with link strength, charge, iterations so that the layout can be tuned

Hilbert mapping is still a bit ragged - try to clean it up before implementing zoom

At the moment all Hilbert-mapped pubs have a random dither applied to them so that books with the same catalogue number don't collapse into a single point.

Had an idea at Hacky Hour to somehow use the author and title to do further subdivisions between Dewey decimal numbers - work out the details of this.

This will need:

• a proxy on the same host as the website to get around cross-site scripting bans
• progressive loading of results
• hard max on results (catalogue searches can return huge datasets)
• more selective searching (restrict results to books, only search titles and keywords)
• cancel (so the user can stop the search in progress)

Use the library API to get larger datasets, and add authors. Best way to do this is: put a search form on the bookmap page, have it run a search against endeca and convert the JSON into a graph

List catalogue records in the control pane, live when doing live search

Add d3-zoom behaviour

When copying the links from the initial voronoi to the dynamic layout, try to make the end result links the "same length" as the original, to get more organic clustering

Can we make a 3-D version?
