That's correct: the repo browser only can fetch data from a repository.
The list of repositories is *not* inside a repository, so there's no
apache module to respond to the queries of the repobrowser.
With Subversion 1.3, there's a new directive for mod_dav_svn:
SVNListParentPath on
which will make that module return a list of all repositories under
SVNParentPath to a webbrowser (but that still won't work with the
repobrowser).

That can't be easily changed. Even if we could, it would increase the
latency a lot, so we wouldn't do it anyway. Sorry.
