Description

Today, when a project loads, the _Dependencies_ node appears with no children, and no ▷ icon to suggest that it's expandable:

Then, some time later (commonly several seconds) the children appear:

We should have enough information at the time the tree is first created to display it in populated form, even if only via the evaluation data.

We should display the tree immediately.
