User MAKEs an error - that's the programmers fault.
Programmer MAKEs an error - that's the designers fault.
Designers can't make errors, only improvements.
Bugs come about through the natural thermal decay of the universe - can't be anyone's fault.

Wise words ... ROFL 🙂

Just a heads-up, I've now made that feature to bug and added limited flow execution:
What I have also added is a status message when a node receives a `msg` - this is intended to help folks new to Node-RED to understand the concept of message passing.
I have only implemented a very limited number of nodes and there is no guarantee of completeness:
- http request (but GET only)
- Json node
- Xml node (using this [codebase](https://github.com/will-wyx/x2js))
- delay node
- inject node
- change node
- debug node
- ClientCode node - the function node for in-browser code
All nodes are demonstrated in the initial flow that's loaded with [server-less Node-RED](https://cdn.flowhub.org) is opened.
The [code for the nodes](https://github.com/gorenje/cdn.flowhub.org/blob/69b433839b7069678ad9d5438241e3ebdb9bd844/red/deadred.js) is very slap-dash and does just enough to implement flow execution.
(The intention of adding the Xml node is to emulate the main use-case of Yahoo Pipes! --\> RSS feed sorting and merging 😉 )

I keep playing around with this and now have additional support for:
- link nodes (link in, link out and link calls)
- subflow nodes
- CSV node
- blockly node (frontend only) - makes for a good comparison between different visual programming paradigms
- switch node (not fully though)
also the [flow compare sidebar](https://cdn.flowhub.org/?t=0&sbid=FlowCompare) works by comparing browser version and the last deployed version of the flow:
Also if want to create UML, then thats [possible](https://cdn.flowhub.org/?t=0&sbid=Flow2Mermaid&fhid=2401c255b056e0e1):
There is also a working screen capture sidebar for generating SVGs from flows.
