Yeah, it should be easy and potentially useful to have some pre-cooked 
arrays that can be returned for easy use.

Another advantage of using a single array is that the library includes a 
handler to save/restore a graph - which can write out (or read in) the 
array, currently JSON-encoded, to a file; also gives the option to write 
the JPEG version of the group.
