It's not really required fpr graphwiz to be added to textproc/docproj
just because it may be used for the www build.  Already today you
cannot build complete doc/ with only textproc/docproj installed (the
Palm book tools are not installed).

One could just only build the graph's on www.freebsd.org, and not by
default - see www/en/ports/Makefile for example on how we already do
that.

WRT. the size of the graph I agree that is not optimal, but by using a
smaller font it should be possible to handle that.

While the mentor graph's aren't useful per say, I think they are kind
of neat :-).
