[Buildbot-devel] Web force build options

When doing a "Force Build" from the http://host/buildbot/BUILDER_NAME screen, I think the
'Branch to build' should automatically be filled in. I pretty sure I see how do that in
the code, and can make a patch for it.

That got me to thinking about the checkout 'mode' as well. Having that on form would let
you force a 'clobber' when things go wrong.  The mode is buried within a source checkout
step within a build factory, so getting to it seems problematic at best.

Any ideas on how to accomplish forcing a clean checkout?

Thanks,

	Andy
