When switching to NODES, the counting step is not required and the
children fetching algorithm should simply be changed.

Step back and look at that code.

The gather_children() got a bit more complicated because I was trying
to get the list of children from BASE_NODE and WORKING_NODE, and union
those together (or skip the union altogether in certain cases). With
NODES, it becomes one simple query:

SELECT DISTINCT local_relpath FROM nodes
WHERE wc_id = ?1 AND parent_relpath = ?2;

Done.

Pass that query to single_table_children() and return.

count_children, add_children_to_hash, and union_children can all be
eliminated with SVN_WC__NODES_ONLY.

Maybe. The query that you have (a self join) should work but is quite
expensive, so let's hope you won't need it often.
