Having some script or app that would do cleanup(or suggest options what package "tree"s can be removed) for you will be even better

If you install/uninstall only through App manager, then this should all get taken care of for you. If you've installed/uninstalled from the command line, then "apt-get autoremove" should clean up any unused dependencies.

As for getting a dependency tree view, I'm not aware of anything to do this.
