All the raw data is there to take a look at if you're determinedly curious.
I don't know a lot about the theory behind the graphviz sccmap tool, and how
exactly it breaks the graph up.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm going to finish the last tweaks and submit
my patch with the list as it currently stands, because of the scale of the
change and the looming-yet-still-a-little-vague end of stage1, but I think
tweaking the list of files subsequently is something we can do incrementally
once it's reviewed and checked in, no?
