Ouf. And I thought I had read the introductory portions of the documentation
carefully. Sorry about that, and thanks for the analysis :)

If you imagine the packages as being in a tree (like the tree control in the
graphical configtool) then ecosconfig list gives a "trunk" without dependency
descriptions or sub-options.
I guess what I'm really looking for boils down to "the graphical configuration
tool". I think I will run the graphical tool on my Windows desktop system here so I
can refer to things and know how to drive my Linux dev box. It gives me a better
idea of the relationship of the various packages.

Right, that is where I look now. I then need to go down into the sub-files in order
to extract some of the "implicitly adds xxx..." type info though.
