Don't know if it's a standard Graphviz thing but the text felt like it wasn't vertically centered in the bubble's.

We always had trouble with that too. Wasn't there another YC thread in the last couple of days about exactly this problem in typography.

In theory you could rasterize and center the result in the box. In practice, good luck accounting for how ascenders and descenders alter the visual balance to make something that feels "right". I've spent way too much time fiddling with borders on my photos, I don't want to imagine working with something so unruly as text!
