Hmmmmmm. 'svn help status' gives a *truckload* of information--enough to
help you figure out any flag on status--and it's right there at your
fingertips.
I'm -0.5 to any changes to svn status output, although I may be able to
be convinced about the goodness of adding a line at the very top that
says "See 'svn help status' for details on status flags".
