Perhaps, but if I deleted the tree foo/bar and didn't replace it with a
file then the revert would skip foo/bar and leave it deleted. I would
need to do "svn revert --depth=immediates" to revert foo/bar and leave
the children deleted.

Before revert:

      path op_depth
                     0 1 2
      / normal
      foo normal
      foo/bar normal - normal
      foo/bar/zig normal - deleted

Revert the added file to leave the deleted directory:

      path op_depth
                     0 1 2
      / normal
      foo normal
      foo/bar normal - deleted
      foo/bar/zig normal - deleted

Non-recursive revert on the directory:

      path op_depth
                     0 1 2 3
      / normal
      foo normal
      foo/bar normal
      foo/bar/zig normal - - deleted

So a replacement WORKING file changes depth=files into depth=immediates
for those nodes?
