      Description

        When reasoning about convoluted examples containing one or more symbol completion 'races', it is often useful to visualize the completion process in terms of a dependency graph. It would be nice if javac could be able to generate such a graph automatically. Attached is an example of source code and corresponding dependency graph.

        This could be useful for both debugging and testing.
