Absolutely. What we have now is concise and shows exactly which files
are involved with no clutter.

If you just want tree-like ordering, doesn't the column sorting do that
for you?

If you have a full tree expansion, it would be hard to spot unversioned
files.

If you really want a full tree view with folders, you already have that
in explorer, with the TSVN icons showing you the status. Admittedly you
can't have all folders open at once, but how big do you want the view to
be?
