RFE: Special icon for sparse directories in sparse checkout

From: Ryan J Ollos <ryano_at_physiosonics.com>

Would it be possible to overlay a special icon on directories that have been
checked out using the sparse checkout option `Checkout Depth: Immediate
children, including folders`?

For example, suppose I checkout my working copy with that checkout depth
option to obtain:

Working Copy/file1
                  /file2
                  /dir1
                  /dir2

`dir1` and `dir2` are empty in the working copy, but are not empty in the
full repository tree @HEAD.

Now suppose I select `dir1` and update with the `fully recursive` checkout
depth. In this case I'd like to see `dir1` overlayed with the normal icon,
and `dir2` overlayed with a special icon indicating that not all of its
children have been checked out.

The feature would not be extremely useful for the simple example I
described, but would be useful in the case were I have a large repository
tree, a working copy from a sparse checkout, and would like to keep track of
which directories have been checked out with all of their children.

It seems like the possibility to have this feature is completely dependent
on whether Subversion store `sparse checkout` information in the .svn
folder, but I don't know enough about the internals to even guess at whether
this is the case.
