Yes, I am interested.

I do not see how one can change the width and height of a node
as I believe that the grid is defined through \setupFLOWcharts.

However, it could eventually be interesting to be able to modify
the frame size within a cell
\startFLOWcell [width=]
or
\startFLOWcell [scale=]
but this is not (yet) a feature...

I see no reason why one cannot set the color by FLOWcell,
but the obvious
\startFLOWcell [framecolor=red,backgroundcolor=yellow]
does not seem to work.

One can use FLOWfocus, but can one focus on multiple cells?

P.S. I think that it would be interesting to be able to
abstract the location of a cell, as in
\startFLOWchart[example]
\startFLOWcell 
  \name {flow}
  \text {Flow}
  \connection [rl] {chart}
\stopFLOWcell
\startFLOWcell
  \name {chart}
  \location{rightof=flow}
  \text {Charts}
\stopFLOWcell
\startFLOWcell
  \name {new}
  \location{above=flow}
  \connection [bt] {flow}
  \text {New}
\stopFLOWcell
\stopFLOWchart
\FLOWchart[example]
