Description:
Calculate foreign keys so that they do not overlap tables themself. 

How to repeat:
Reverse engineer any database with lots of tables.

Suggested fix:
Create intelligent screen placement routine that will try thru iteration to place tables the best way. Currently things overlap as tables are simply place on the grid. See for example what SQL Server tools can do.
