Actually I think it would be helpful to have this option, Mark.
I remember my days from using the CVS plugin - they had an option called
"override and update" which would completely revert all your workspace
changes and update to the latest revision. AFAIK subclipse does not have
any way of doing this, however it sounds like what you described
(recursive revert on the root).
It would be akin to the result of deleting the project entirely and
re-checking out. I always found that somewhat useful when I had
completely botched something (which happens from time to time). On CVS
it was less painful.
