Can't we make text-based programming visual with some IDE/plugins?

It would be interesting to drag functions around (and so forth) in blocks.

Some of the data flow representation software enables us to do this, I guess. From UML diagrams, we could create classes etc

This should be easy with the AST-based editors (such as JetBrains MPS).
