May be i am missing a point why do you prefer the library graph...
anyway added the option:

--preserve-libs
-p      Don't collapse libs to modules

Indeed, missed it. I put it in the wrong place in the pipe line.
Fixed now:

slideshow->cppcanvas->canvas
and *not*
slideshow->canvas

I did also some refactoring: not matched libs are dropped now;
or do you want an option here --preserve-not-matched-libs? ;-)

The result - now it fits on A3:

Well, we can certainly add even more features, like add soft (include only) dependencies, external 
modules,
"print children or parents only from module foo" - feature, or even create an interactive web page
based on ds3.js ...
