We have a situation exactly like this. We simply instruct people not to
just check out "trunk", but instead check out the specific projects they
need "trunk/project".

Those of us who use command line use batch files to update each repo found
within the trunk WC folder. Those of use who use Tortoise just select all
the folders inside the trunk WC folder and update. This proved to be much
simpler and less prone to human error than trying to delete or hide
anything.
