I think you want a representation of the connectedness of all the
members leading to X.  You don't want to waste time hunting down how
to remove a member M from the set C in an effort to prevent X from
getting pulled into C, if that member M needed by a lot more than X.

     * given the sets I and C and a specific package X in I, which
       packages in C are pulled in by X ? Which ones are pulled in just
       by X and which ones by X and other packages in I ?

Again measures of the the associate subtrees around a vertex would be
useful.  Don't need a visual graph for that, just an associated weight
on the member indicating the size, interconnectedness of its sub-tree.
