Description
I want to lay out a graph where some edges should be longer than others.
To increase Weight works so-so,
To increase Separation works rather well (sometimes) but may also cause crashes.
In the WPF Sample, the following graph causes a crash:
Graph graph = new Graph();
var edge = graph.AddEdge("A", "B");
edge.Attr.Separation = 2;
graphViewer.Graph = graph;

Research direction
Start by running the WPF Sample with the graph and edge.Attr.Separation = 2 shown in the issue, then capture where the crash occurs while assigning or laying out graphViewer.Graph. The work is done when the sample renders this graph without crashing and the relevant behavior remains covered by an appropriate regression check.
