There is an open issue for this. I cannot think of a great solution.
Doing a recursive revert from the existing option would be dangerous
and easy to revert someone's changes that they did not want. The
ideal would be to think of an appropriate way to add an explicit
recursive revert option. Perhaps doing something in the "Replace
with" menu where we could reasonably infer that the user intended to
just do a recursive revert.
