What you call a regression is actually a bugfix and a new feature. While
I admit it doesn't work quite well with the wordpress repo, it works
very well with most others.

I'm sorry, but I won't change TSVN. Neither by removing that feature nor
by adding yet another option to disable it. I have no intention to spend
hours on something that only affects one repo, and a very badly set up
one at that. Having 38000+ projects in a repository root is just plain
bad. If you really need so many projects in one repo, move them in
subfolders, e.g. you could arrange them by type, or simply by start
letter (folder 'A' contains all project starting with letter 'A', ...).

A simple reordering of the folders in the wordpress repo would get rid
of the problem and also reduce the stress on the server, not just
because of the TSVN repo browser.
