LOL your question there is the source of my pointer to Collection-Graphs :)

So I guess the available knowledge amounts to this :) Okay, we have two
choices:
1) we keep all the existing package (which I assume not maintained, since
the last release is 4 years old) and try to guess what the guy was using it
for
2) we make a light-weight thing by extracting parts of it and adding what WE
need... and for God sake we at least blog about what we are doing

I'm using DGs as
1) a classificatory taxonomy
2) a dependency map

and UGs to map "relations" (a bidirectional "see also" to map related
objects).

I have no current need for stuff like a network flow, although I *may* think
in the future of adding "weight" to an edge depending on how frequently
people navigate it. I suppose your needs amount to a strict dependency
(maybe with optional weaker links?). Is this correct?

The example in the package are/look broken, most probably there will be a
fair bit of exploration to make.
