Currently, cdk-dia edges provide no additional details about the intent/purpose/relationship between two nodes. They just connect them.
It could be useful to try and bring these details as text by the edges.
An example use case would be:new s3.Bucket(this,'my-bucket').grantRead(myLambdaFunction). In this case, the existing edge between the myLambdaFunction and my-bucket would have the text "reads" or something similar.
The implementation is tricky as cdk-dia does not parse the TS code, but instead creates the diagram based on the construct tree.
The edges are generated according to references between nodes/resources.
It should be possible to enrich those edges with details according to the IAM actions allowed by an IAM role in this case.
