I wonder if this can somehow be used as a tool for quick visual inspection of architecture compliance. Maybe the size of the box could be selected before display to denote a custom metric. For example, if the size of the box for each file was proportional to the (number_of_lines_edited) * (current_date - file_creation_date), then modularity could demand that the size of the boxes remain small. (pardon the musings of a non software engineer on a Saturday night)
