Show dependencies is not working in rollback

Show dependencies is a must , I was asking for that for a very long time
But now I found out it will not work when in roll back.
so if I have a sketch that is used by a feture currently rolled back the sketch will show no dependencies. this is a mistake. i started deleting sketches like that just to realize they do have children.
it must show also rolled back dependencies. this is very problematic

I can understand - in a way - not being able to select features after the roll-back bar. They're gray-ed out and that makes a certain amount of sense. However, it's not like the dependency graph changes if the rollback bar moves. If the features are edited, then it makes sense that it would be difficult to predict what will happen after a change until the part is rolled to the end. Would it not be easy to cache the last known dependencies, and report those? Maybe the dependency window shows those features in gray so it's more clear that we don't really know what's happening with them now, but at least before the rollback, we had a certain state that we know. To me it's more useful to report some potentially out of date information instead of just reporting nothing.
It seems like it might be against Onshape "policy" to display potentially wrong data so I would be surprised if they implemented something like this (I could see it being a bit of a "can of worm")...
However displaying warning in the dependencies window (right in the header? Maybe even the same warning Icon used on features with missing selections?) when the tree is rolled back would be helpful! Even better if it was a button you could click to "roll to end".
