Thanks in advance for your comments.

Another thing that would be nice: hyperlinked dependencies

I’ve put it in the TODO list. It’s another set of tables and another
fairly extensive scan of the database to construct this, so it may
take a while to find its way in, but I agree about its value.

Couldn’t you just issue a query containing the dependency name?

At first blush, yes. But if it’s implemented as a many-to-many
relation, I can develop richer information like what depends on a
particular gem. A direct query might be a good initial implementation
though.
