RE: general questions

If you think it would require 44 click paths then that is indeed a poor design.

1 click to select the repository, 1 click to select all. I just turned 44 click paths into 2 clicks. Sounds like your vision is nothing like mine.

What other guis are out there besides tortoise? If there's something I like, I'll use it. Otherwise I'll make one if only to illustrate what seems difficult for me to explain and others to grasp.

Don't do that, there are a lot of GUIs for Subversion out there.
Especially if you need to repeat the same task many times, the command
line and scripts are the way to got, because that's what they are made
for. Nobody wants to click the same click paths 44 times through a
GUI, that's why some programs are capable of macros. You should really
think twice if your want to waste your time with building some client
side HTML application with very limited benefit and capabilities. Have
a look at TortoiseSVN and its integration into the Windows Explorer, a
lot of mass editing tasks of whatever are really easy to achieve, as
with normale file operations.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Thorsten Schöning
