I think the relevant tools on the upstart side are 'initctl show-config -e'
and 'initctl2dot'.  This doesn't render in a tree format the way 'systemctl
list-dependencies' does, because job relationships are a DAG, not a tree;
but I can see there being room for a simplified view of jobs that works from
a terminal.
