Not sure what you mean by this.  You want the web interface to perform
the same functions as yum?

Like http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=69779 for example?
(follow the (info) link next to the RPM list on the buildinfo page)

What other metadata would you like displayed here?

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpmlist?buildrootID=2540&type=component
(from the taskinfo page click Buildroot -> Component RPMs)

Every RPM with a check mark in the "Update" column was pulled in as a
BuildRequires or a dependency of a BuildRequires.  RPMs without a check
mark in the "Update" column were pulled in as part of the minimal
buildroot.  Note that there is usually overlap in these sets.
