[TSVN] Repo-browser behaviour on copy to operation

Hi
 
I'm using TSVN release 1.1.3. I attempted to tag a release earlier. I
wanted therefore to make a copy of /trunk/src/projectA to
/tags/src/projectA/v0.1.0 .
 
Neither /tags/src nor /tags/src/projectA existed before doing the tag, and I
got the error popup saying:
 
"Out of date: 'tags/bits/HandsetConfig' in transaction '142-1'
You have to update your working copy first."
 
I duly updated my working copy (bit mystified as to why, though; I'm
performing a server operation, aren't I?) and tried again; same error. At
this point I figured it was because the middle directories didn't exist. So
I created them, and successfully made my tag.

 
Summary:
* The wording of the error message is misleading; doing what it said to do
didn't fix the problem.
* Should there be a "create directories if they don't exist" checkbox that
is off by default?
* This might apply to the rename/move dialogue, too...?

PS - is there any chance that the textbox behaviour on double-click can be
changed so that instead of highlighting the whole content, only the current
hovered-over word gets selected, and it takes instead three clicks to get
the whole content? I realise there are limits to what a textbox _should_ do
- it's not an editor. But this is fairly common behaviour in Windows...?
