svn:external Pin on Branch Option

I was thinking that a really useful and quick feature for TSVN could be
to have a checkbox on the Branch/Copy dialog for pinning external
revisions to their current revision. It seems like when you branch or
tag a copy of your project, a lot of times, you would want to pin your
externals to that point in time as well. Right now we have to go into
the branch / tag manually and change the svn:external property to point
to the current revision so that the external is pinned and doesn't
change when we want to work on that branch or checkout the tag.

Does this make sense?
