There is only "Undo add", which does what it should (revert the state to unversioned but keep the file) for normal added files, but for copied files, this also deletes the file (moves it to the recycle bin).

On the command line, this can be achieved by
svn rm --keep-local

Could this also be made available in TortoiseSVN?

In these situations I recommend the check-for-modifications dialog. If you revert from there it will work as you expect, since that dialog already has all the status info it needs to detect that a revert will remove the file and acts accordingly to get the file 'back'.
