I opened a explorer window for "\\127.0.0.1\svn_repository" which
have a repository "sandbox" in it. I opened a context menu for
"sandbox" and selected [Repo-browser].

I wanted that for the following case, in which user don't tell a
URL.

But I think explicit operations for "file:///\" should pass it
literally to Subversion. Consider an user copy&pasted a URL from
an old document as the URL for the repository of his project. If
it shows a different URL, he will be confused.

Yes. The actual URL was "file:///\127.0.0.1/svn_repository/sandbox"
which points a test repository.
