Ok, so now that the conflicts filter is under review, I'm back to
thinking about the delete unmanaged resources. How about a "Revert and
Clean" option that would do a revert and also delete any unmanaged
resources? It would behave much like Revert, except that in addition
to whatever resources would normally show up in the Revert dialog, any
unmanaged resources that were selected, or implied via recursion would
also show up, and if selected, would be deleted.

I like this better than the the list unversion resources because it
gives you a one step process to return a worspace, folder or sync view
back to a pristine state. Though, I could see both being useful.
