Comments:
This is somewhat of a disappointment. True, I would like the new 1.18 features that were missing from the previous version, but not at this cost!

[glen.low] Thanks for your feedback. The graphviz-1.18.pkg is experimental and marked so on the website.

We're working to bring Graphviz.app up-to-date as soon as possible; you can track progress on the graphviz-devel mailing list. Besides the things mentioned in your report, which specific features have priority for you?

[glen.low] Pixelglow Graphviz never had a preferences screen.

No need for File/New, since Graphviz is really only a viewer. Previous Pixelglow Graphviz GUI had a file/new but it only created a generic graph that the user edited via an external editor, it was not a true editor. Since the current GUI retains the file notification feature, it will still work in concert with an external editor as before.

I've added the toolbar to the current Graphviz GUI.
