 Allow setting `padding` option for `node.extent: 'parent'`
+
+Padding can be a `number[]` containing a maximum of 4 values.
+The values are applied in the same order as CSS padding: top, right, bottom, left.
+You can omit values at the end of the array, so `[10, 20]` is equivalent to `[10, 20, 10, 20]` etc.
+
+#### Usage
+
+```js
+const nodes = ref([
+  {
+    id: '4',
+    label: 'Node 4',
+    position: { x: 320, y: 200 },
+    style: { backgroundColor: 'rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.7)', width: '300px', height: '300px' },
+  },
+  {
+    id: '4a',
+    label: 'Node 4a',
+    position: { x: 15, y: 65 },
+    class: 'light',
+    extent: {
+      range: 'parent',
+      // apply 10 px padding to all four sides
+      padding: [10],
+    },
+    parentNode: '4',
+  },
+])
+```
