Task Dependency Block View

Would be awesome to be able to see projects in a format like that used by Casual.pm. Gantt charts make it very easy to see how tasks lead to deadlines, and to identify critical paths, but they are not great at immediately showing how tasks depend on one another, nor the total number of processes in action at any given time. It requires the user to go back and forth between the list of tasks, and the visual blocks on a timeline, and then scroll up and down the list to see everything that's going on.

I also find the casual.pm format much easier to compose from.

This organization seems like a simple reorganization of the information already available in a normal Gantt project, so it seems to be technically feasible. Are their plans for developing this feature in the future?
