--------------------------------------------------------------

So far I have built this visualizer with the following features:
1. Automatic highlights of:
- Shortest path to root
- All paths to root
- All callers
- All dependencies
- Other revisions

2.  Filtering options:
- Hide evictions
- Limit depth (only show up to the n-th level transitive dependency)
- Hide selection

3. Focusing:
- Focus on an ivy classpath container
- Focus on a selection

4. Zooming
5. Print screen

> I am kind of excited about this one.  I would like to be able to see the 
> resolve report depicted graphically, showing me clearly how particular 
> dependencies wound up on the classpath, what nodes got evicted, what 
> dependencies a particular transitive dependency has, etc etc.  Ivy can 
> sometimes fall into the category of "automagically" doing so much for us on 
> the classpath, that developers can take it for granted.  Especially when a 
> version conflict arises out of a resolution (by which two different revisions 
> are resolved that aren't under the same eviction context), I see developers 
> getting very confused.  I hope this visualization will help them understand.
