It would be even more handy if it could tell me the order in which I needed to install the missing dependencies
That would be handy, agreed, but usually when using cpan or cpanp(not sure about cpanm, never used it), the dependencies are automatically installed for you. That's handy, until one distribution in the chain of many decides to fail on a test or make, in which case you get to start over again(for the most part).
I don't think I can do it with just CPANDeps' XML, I would likely have to poll many sources to get that information.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
