bookmarks idea -> local project tree

 

hi all,

I normally organise my web bookmarks into folders, so I was going to
suggest something similar to that for bzr-explorer (is that BE for
short? :)

But thinking about it for 30 seconds I realised I don't want to go and
bookmarks every
single branch on every single project I work with, and organise them
into folder.
Then I realised my stuph is already pretty well organised in real folders.

I think it would be really cool if I can specify my local prefered
projects directory(s) and then have
a tree-view with them as roots and where only child repositories and
branches are the nodes.
clicking on it opens it like the bookmarks does.

We probably wont want to rescan for branches every time you open this view,
so maybe we scan it the first time and on request (have a refresh
button or F5 action).

This idea was inspired by the way DigiKam (photo manager) allows you
to specify albums, which it
scans on startup.
