Currently, it seems only possible to search for individual dependencies using the advanced boolean charts facility and the "BugsThisDependsOn" or "OtherBugsDependingOnThis" fields. However, it would be nice if there was a way to search the database for all bugs that have <=x or >= x [blocking] dependencies. 
This would for example make it possible to search only for bugs that do not have any dependencies whatsoever.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
We are recently looking for something similar to this (if not the same). 

We'd like to be able to search for all bugs meeting a certain criteria *and* include in the results, all bugs that are dependencies.   e.g.

Bug 100 is attached to milestone A.
Bug 101 and 102 are marked as dependencies for bug 100.
Bug 103 is marked as a dependency for bug 101.

So in order to achieve milestone A we need to resolve 100,101,102,103.

However, simply searching on milestone A only shows bug 100.

Our (naiive) suggestion is to add a checkbox to the advance search page which says something like "also list any dependencies".
This seems like a duplicate of bug 103866 to me.
