That sounds really cool! When you say query string, am I right in thinking of URL search params? i.e., "?trigger=event1" kind of thing?
The intention, though, was the make the variable assignment general-purpose enough for whatever node data needed to be stored. So, in my case, I'll be storing things like "x" and "y" positions, so that the nodes can be restored to their absolute position on the graph.
As for the video, please feel free to ask any questions; I'm sorry about it being kind of slow and incomplete. This was recorded to showcase how the tokenization is dynamic: https://streamja.com/JKPkJ
