Maybe more like this:

Workspace <-> wfs <--|----> analysis locus #1
                     |
                    wfs
                     |
                     |----> analysis locus #2
                     |
                    wfs
                     |
                     |----> gui locus #1
                     |
                    wfs
                     |
                     |----> gui locus #2
                     |
                    wfs
                     |
                     |----> database
                     |
                    wfs
                     |
                     |----> etc...

where "Workspace" is (1) the workflow diagram/monitor, (2) the notebook/logger,
and (3) the central canvas.  Communication to these isn't really any different. 
It's just that these are for user monitoring and control.
