Just the idea - not sure whether it is possible to implement.
There are some packages, which are used as dependencies in other packages. And, we can find dependencies of the packages by sending package to configuration; but we can not find packages which are dependent on some particular packages.
If we could do something like right click on the package in the list -> Find dependent packages, and it would show us list of packages (ideally even not installed) which use that package as dependency, that could be sometimes useful.
Now, for example, we use some package as dependency, and I was wondering whether there are some other toolkits which use it as dependency. But, there is no way to find it out - unless to check information for each of the package or trying to install them.

Thank you very much,
