This is *not* a duplicate of bug 127714, this bug is a request for a change to
the behaviour of the dependency view, and not a request for greater obviousness
with regards to the options.

Instead of current view/sorting:

process  ^foo usage
c        3
d        2
a        1
 \        
  b      5

(b is a child of a)

It is a request for a view/sorting like:

process  ^foo usage
a        1+5=6
 \        
  b      5
c        3
d        2

Here "foo" can be memory, cpu, or any other metric that can sanely be summed to
a total which has a meaning (i.e. not pid, I guess).

So, the feature request is for dependency parents to be assigned, and hence be
sortable by, the sum total of the attribute of itself, and all of its'
dependency children.
