Feature Request: Multiple Checkouts to same directory - GUI

Similar to the discussion on:
"Setting a Working folder at the top level of the
repository"

As a Feature request, what I find will really help is the
ability to "cherry pick" checkouts. Basically selecting
multiple folders to checkout to one folder on a local
computer. Similar to the repo browser (where a user can
view the structure), it would be nice to have the ability
to select multiple folders (by having a checkbox next to
the items in the repo browser) to checkout. Then have a
default (or start) directory where each folder checked out
will reside in. This will allow for multiple checkouts
from one dialog. No typing needed. It is like an
extesion the to the checkout dialog.

It will be graphical, so it is easy to see.

Example Use:
User has a collection of music in the repo. It is
structured by artist, then by album with a folder for
each. Now, you want to checkout a certain set of music.
 Instead of having to go through and type each artist,
then album that you want, it would be great to just go
thourgh and check the ones you want and checkout once. It
will then put the checkouts all under one folder on your
local computer (c:\my music, for example).

I understand this may not be an easy task to do, but it
can be very helpful. It would also be nice to have this
new multi-select GUI appear in place of the repobrowser on
the checkout dialog.
