With GoGui by Markus Enzensberger you can do pretty much all you want (it
is still in beta stage as far as I know). You get a nice graphical go
board, and via a "gtp shell" you can enter a lot of gtp commands 
(dragon_data, top_moves, etc.) that should be able to give you the
information you want.
(Even more than you ask for, I think :-) )

There is (again as far as I know) no released version of GoGui yet, so
you would need CVS access and java development tools (compiler+libraries)
to get it running.
