NR5: Node Appearance improvements #5364

@knolleary

Description

@knolleary

As part of the Node-RED 5.0 UX modernization, we're looking at what improvements can be made to the node (and flow) appearance within the editor.

The design of the node has changed very little since the early days of the project. Over time, various additions have been made (status text below, badges above). But there are some unsatisfied requirements we want to look at.

  • Visualisation of 'virtual' wires - eg Link Call, Status, Catch nodes
  • Standard way for extending the node appearance. Some nodes, eg image-tools, insert additional UI components in the canvas.

At this stage, there are no concrete proposals, but this issue is where we'll focus activity.
