Update to revision in repo-browser

Hi.
        I use the sparse checkout feature a lot, and I love it, however
I've noticed an aspect I think could be improved.

        Currently, I can use the repo-browser to find a directory and
check it out using the 'update to revision' menu item. This works
brilliantly, is really easy to use. However, once checked out, that menu
item no longer displays. I think this should not be the case.

        In the past, for sparse checkouts, I think it made sense not to
allow me to re-update an already checked-out directory, but with the
latest version and its support for 'exclude' checkout-depth, I would
like this menu item to be re-instated so I can remove directories using
the repo-browser instead of the WC 'update to revision' menu.

        I don't know if it makes sense, but wouldn't it be ok to update
a sparse checkout directory to a different revision number anyway? I can
do that using the WC menu, why not in the repo-browser if it can detect
that a directory can be sparsely checked-out, why not updated too?

Thanks, Andy
