I would love to have a dependency coverage tool for Python that tells me the following things: - How many lines is the dependency? - How many lines of the dependency do I actually call? - What overall percentage of the dependency am I using?

Dependencies are liabilities if they become unmaintained. Smaller dependencies are more likely to go dorment. Do you really need that 100 line dependency or can you just write it yourself? Do you really need that 10k line package just to call a couple of 20 line utility functions?
