Not quite. Repo browser needs a URL not a file path. However, I was
thinking about something similar. If you right click on a folder and it
contains a subversion repository, convert that path to a file:// URL and
initialise the URL box with that.

That might be useful. If you start repo browser from a working copy it
already goes straight there, but this could be useful for repositories
that you want to browse often without having them checked out.
