That one is the 1093 pseudo-dupe. Is there another issue related?

Obviously getting 1 fixes this particular case for 2, but this one seems
dead simple and I'm assuming there are other reasons to want to access the
current directory in the repository. Same answer for this...

I think 3 is the "better" feature than 2, so picking one I'd pick 3 (say
that sentence 5 times fast :). They're both just handy UI shortcuts, and
accomplish the same thing, but not vital.
As we both say, getting 1 would alleviate the need for 2 and 3 for this
specific problem, but I've been using svn for all of 2 days, so I don't
have a good feel for other situations in which they'd be desirable and how
often you need to type the full url.
