Paul, first of all, welcome to the forum; I think you already made your mark by singlehandedly providing such a resource :-)
I hope to go through the article in detail during the week-end.
Apparently, the feature is available in Freeplane as well http://freeplane.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Formulas though it's not so user-friendly. It seems quite powerful though.
