That's a valid concern. My inspiration for writing this tool was to create schema diagrams for select tables (hence the -whitelist flag in the tool) rather than _all_ the tables. Think design review, presentation etc instead of exploring a new db. Having some way to dictate what table would be at the top vs. bottom would be nice.

My only fear with that is dbdot becomes bloated with flags and features. If customization of dot can be achieved by piping dbdot output to some other tool, I will explore that path.

Thank you for your feedback :)
