It is just a warning, kind of a stupid feature to begin with. But no,
it does not traverse into every item in the dialog and we definitely
would not want to add that sort of performance hit. If you want to
block people committing to tags then use a hook on the server.

The behavior of update is determined by the SVN API. We just call it.
 The only time I see all files get updated is when the svn:externals
property changes. Even then, I only see the differences in the files
come down.
