Overview
Allows for generation of cypher queries via ruby method calls (inspired by ActiveRecord / arel syntax)
Can be used to express cypher queries in ruby nicely, or to more easily generate queries programatically.
Also, queries can be passed around an application to progressively build a query across different concerns
