Bug Description

The +activereviews page does not show the prerequiste data for proposed branches. Its impossible to tell if a branch has a prerequiste has been reject or approved (or anything inbetween) without clicking through into it, then again through to the prerequisite.

Some possibilities to improve the situation:
* Not show any merge proposals that had a pre-requisite branch the was also proposed for merging and was not yet merged

* Show merge proposals having pre-requisite branches in a "threaded" type view, so it would be obvious to reviewers where to "start" the review process.

* Show a small flow diagram for branches in a chain of prerequisites - e.g.
 Branch foo date status
Depends on Dependency for
baz(blocked) quux(approved)
bar(approved)
 or
bar (approved)-> baz(blocked) -> foo(approved) -> quux(approved

Re: 1, here's one we prepared earlier: https://code.launchpad.net/~citrix-openstack/nova/peer-review/+activereviews

That is, every branch has its own +activereviews already.

I'm going to refocus this bug on point 2 of your request.

summary: - Active reviews screen should allow filtering
