This is caused by the way in which BzrDir.
works. It finds all possible control directories first and then filters
out the ones that have a branch attached to them.
In svn, where every directory is a possible control directory, this
doesn't work.
bzr-svn already has a list of branches readily available for each
repository, so it should be able to answer this question without a scan
for branches.
So it would be nice if bzr-svn could provide bzr with the list of
branches under a particular location. I'm not sure what the best way to
do that (in terms of API) is though.
Cheers,
