Well, yes, this would look like manuals, but I think that could be changed. There is this proprietary software for mac that is basically a dot engine behind the scenes with point-and-click mouse interaction: http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnigraffle/features/

So, why do you mention graphviz ?
That was a way to have a file format just with the significant information for the actual procedures plus comments linked to objects. Doc would arrange this objects in an optimal way in the screen IF there is no file for the positions. That could be something like patch1.dot (or .pdot) and patch1.pos. But that is a big change...
