How to use JUNG to draw a graph in a GEF editor

Question

Is it possible to use a JUNG graph to display model data in a GEF Editor for an RCP application, rather than using Figures, etc. from GEF itself? I'd like to use JUNG to draw a graph for my model, but still be able to use stuff like the flyout palette, the ScalableFreeformLayeredPane and other GEF goodies. The graph should remain editable via GEF on-board means. I just think that JUNG has better algorithms for drawing the actual graph.

Has anyone succeeded in doing that or has any examples/starting points for me?

Thanks so much!

No, you can't do that. GEF is build on top of draw2d, and it is not easy to change this.
