    Hello all!

    What happened to me today might seem very stupid... It was, but it
happed and it caused me a lot of pain... So here I go:

    I have started refactoring some code I was working on, and in the
process I have renamed a file. After a while I decided I want to get
back the original version of that file (but also keep the renamed
file).
    As in SVN a rename is nothing else than a copy followed by a
delete, I selected the package and from there the "Revert...", I have
selected the file by clicking on it and clicked Ok button.

    Nothing wrong right? Wrong... :) :) :) Well it seams that all the
modified resources in that package were selected by default, and when
I found the original file I unchecked it... And as I was in a hurry I
didn't thought about the fact that I should have unselected all the
resources and the selected the right one...

    So as a consequence I erased in an instant what I was working for
almost half a day... :) :) :)

    Now I know I was stupid and did not pay attention, and that I
deserve this punishment, but this problem could have been avoided for
me and the ones that will not be careful...

    And here comes the change request: Could you please modify the
revert dialog to have no resource selected by default?

    Thank you,
    Ciprian Craciun.
