Ok, so it's unwanted behaviour. But not a bug.

Depends: We could either have bogus entries (files showing up as
folders, even expandable with no error returned from the subversion
lib!) or this.

The bug is still there, at least half of it. But we could live with
that, so I changed the behaviour in HEAD.

And I don't know what the big deal is here: in most cases, you start
the repobrowser from a working copy, not from a directly entered URL.

No, they're not. My point is that I have to draw a line somewhere. And
if I merge back this change, other people will want me to merge "just
that bugfix" too (calling it 'bugfix' and not change of course).
