Add option to remove implied dependencies #16

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Consider a graph of dependencies:

    a -> b
    a -> c
    b -> c

The direct link from a->c is implied via a->b->c.

Add an option to the UI that removes dependencies which are implied 
transitively.

This blog post shows the benefit this can have on complex diagrams:
