agreed.

Ok I'm just throwing some ideas around:

The UI could have a radio button group above the text field:

 O Absolute O Relative
 _________________________________
|_________________________________| [Browse]

If "relative" option is selected then the text would be interpreted as being relative to X (not 100% sure what X will be since the user might have a project on a USB stick and not have an eclipse IDE installed on it, while still having bzr installed on the USB stick.)

Maybe if the relative option is selected, the UI could enable/(or make visable) two radio buttons with in a Group:
                   ______________________________
 O Relative | O Eclipse IDE O Workspace |
                  |______________________________|
______________________________
______________________________| [Browse]

The browse button will open the dialog from the relative starting location as specified above. Additionally the the text field can be edited by hand.

Let me know if this will be adequate? Or if its an overkill or if its missing some scenarios?
