Where you wrote "UI element", did you mean "data structure"? I don't know what it would mean to talk about graphs as a primitive user interface element.
With a language with sufficiently expressive metaprogramming facilities (LISP enthusiasts will recommend LISP for this role) you can extend it with whatever data structures you want.
I guess I meant both a data structure and a visual representation of a data structure (in LISP they are almost the same, which is what makes metaprogramming in LISP so natural).
