Improve usability of graph API with additional methods
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DNA-266
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-266
             Project: DNA
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: API, Graph
    Affects Versions: 0.3
            Reporter: Randall Hauch
            Assignee: Randall Hauch
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.4


Provide an easy way to set references to nodes as property values.  Currently, one has to get the node, obtain a reference value factory, create the reference, then set the property using that value.  It's pretty impossible to make a single chained call that does all this.

Also, provide additional flexibility when setting properties.  Currently, the only way to set a property is to do the following:
        graph.set("propName").to("value").on("/node1");
but it would also be nice to reverse the "on" and "to" methods, such as:
        graph.set("propName").on("/node1").to("value");
