Comparing URLs in new repo browser

Hi Stefan,

After marking a URL for compare, there is no indication of which URL has
been marked. If you are having to scroll around to find the folders it
is easy to forget which one you marked, and whether you really picked
the right tag to compare with. If you request a unified diff from the
wrong one it could be a long time and a lot of bandwidth before you find
out that the diff is not the one you wanted.

You might consider using a different folder icon to indicate the one
marked for comparison. Or you could just embolden the folder name. Or
you could put it as text below the F5 hint at the bottom, but I prefer a
visual marker on the tree.

I just noticed that when you resize the dialog, that hint wraps at a
boundary which is a very long way clear of the OK button.

Simon
