Escaping %20 in subversion URLs - minor niggle

Would it be possible to automatically un-escape space characters and other escaped characters when showing Subversion URLs in text entry boxes in Tortoise?

For example, when I use TortoiseSvn "Switch", the URL field has "%20" in place of spaces. I know this is the syntactically correct form, but as a user I like to use human-readable URLs. I can enter them with spaces, but would also like to see them with spaces.
And when you're looking down the auto-complete history of the text field, some entries use %20 and some don't.

For example:
svn://myserver/Branches/MyProduct%202.1%20misc%20minor%20fixes

is much harder to read than
svn://myserver/Branches/MyProduct 2.1 misc minor fixes
