Emit link particles on demand

[dfreeman06]

Elevator Pitch

Particles are a unique story telling device in the force-graph library. Having the ability to specify a set of links to emit particles can allow more nuances to those stories.

Motivation

Some ways we might use particle links:

• a dynamic way to highlight shortest paths
• show propagation of some stimulus through the nodes.
