You're right, this seems to be the most frequently asked question this
week, and your solution sounds sensible too.

How about renaming it to "Branch/tag graph" or just "Branch graph" and
moving its context menu position so it sits in the same group as
"Branch/tag" and "Switch".

Another silly idea:
If the graph is invoked from a WC (ie not repo-browser), would it be
useful to have a "Switch..." option in the context menu for each graph
node? Of course this relies on completing issue 192 first, so that each
branch has a HEAD node to click on.

Would it be useful to add a branch-graph button to the switch dialog as
an alternate means of selecting the branch to switch to?
