Feature suggestion: relocation-helper

Hi!

We have recently moved our SVN repos from foo.example.com to bar.example.net.
I have several dozen working copies here, so I'm relocating a lot. I noticed
two things:

1. The history is useless, since it always includes both the repository and
the path inside the repository. This doesn't make sense to me, since the only
thing I can change with a "switch --relocate" should be the repository URL but
not the path inside the repository.

2. I get a button "..." there. The button opens a repository browser which
stalls until it finds that the former server doesn't exist any more. Further,
I believe it would offer me the path inside the repository as well which I
believe isn't very useful, see above.

What I would like is if the dialog offered just the repository URL and offered
recently-used repository URLs as history. For extra bonus points you could
offer just those as history than have the same UUID, but I don't think that
many user have too many repositories there anyway. The button to open a
repository browser is IMHO superfluous here and could be removed.

Cheers & thanks!

Uli
