Is this more dangerous than doing it from the command line?

Do you think that it would be a bad idea to popup a dialog saying
something along these lines?

You are about to revert the following resources and all resources
contained within. This is a non-reversible and destructive operation,
all changes will be lost.

List of resources (optionally only directories)

[ ] Don't ask me again
| Proceed | | Cancel |

This could popup whenever directories are part of the selection or
always.

Let me know if I misunderstood your concern.
