> Often times, flows start simple with a handful of processors connected together in a mostly-straight line. Then a few routing decisions are made. Then a few more processors are added. Eventually, the flow can become pretty tangled, even to the point of being snowflake-like. Additionally, we sometimes have users who build flows dynamically using the REST API.
> NiFi should support a way to more easily align components on the canvas and to automatically lay out all components in a Process Group.
