Feature request (or plugin request)

Sometimes I wonder what the hell my system is doing downloading a
certain package (or what is was thinking when it downloaded and
installed a certain package).  In such cases it would be nice to be able
to dump a dot file showing the dependency graph.

Thanks.

P.S. In this case I'm wonder WTF yum decided to download both the
x86_64 /and/ i386 versions of the entire gnome desktop on my first "yum
update" after installing a KDE-only system.  Yay for 1.3GB downloads.
