I just did something dumb with my SVN repository, I accidentally imported a load of stuff into the root instead of into a subfolder. It will take me ages to clean up.... unless there is an easy way to do a global revert on the repo? The help file talks about reverting working copies but there is no working copy for a newly-imported item. Is there a way to undo an import?

One way would be to do an backup only up to the desired version and then restore the repository.
svnadm dump /path/to/repo -r 0:desired_max
should give you the backup you want.
Make a checkout of the complete repository, merge the change out and then commit.
$ svn checkout https://server/repro temp
$ cd temp
$ svn merge -c -[revision] https://server/repro
Check your working copy is correct
$ svn commit -m "Revert of botched import."
