I like Toby's suggestion of throwing up the list with check boxes, ala
the commit window as it stands today.

Random Question: What does "lock" do on a directory? Lock all files?
Or the directory itself? Recursive? I'm sure this is all answered in
the SVN specs for 1.2 somewhere. Does it impact the GUI at all?

That sounds great.
