I'm trying to see if it's possible to connect two points on the graph
with the pgf fancy arrows from the shape library. That is
\node at (1,1) [double arrow, fill, color=green!70!black] {arrow};
I managed to put an arrow at a point (1,1 at the previous example) but I
don't see how to get each end to rest at a give point (I need a path and
not a point). Is it even possible, and if so, is it possible to do it
with 90 degree bends? i.e
A

The A-B diagram can be done with a \draw command using standard arrow
heads, or arrow heads from the arrow tip library (TiKZ/PGF manual,
section 22). The arrow shapes library defines stand-alone shape objects;
I don't think they can be used directly as arrow tips, and I don't think
they can be stretched and bent (other than by redesigning them).
Section 58 of the TiKZ/PGF manual explains how to design your own arrow
heads, if you are so inclined. I don't know if there's a way to use a
defined shape directly, but you could presumably use the source code for
the arrow in the shape library to guide you in designing a similar arrow
head.
