Reverting a bit change in Subclipse is kind of a nightmare -- you have to go through several rounds of Team > Revert, each one slowly reverting one file at a time. There's got to be a better way.

I took a look at:
http://subclipse.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1303

and I'm aware of the UI issues it mentions. But it seems like:

- if it's going to revert each selected file individually, it could still pass -R when reverting each one, so that if it's a directory, its contents will be reverted. This would especially help when you deleted a nested directory, and each Revert command just restores one layer of files, but not its children.

- in the dialog, if you select all files in a directory, it could revert the directory itself. The UI already makes it look like it will do this, by checking the directory when you check its files.
