I'd think you'd still want to explicitly specify log message, since it
wouldn't be good to end up with logless transactions, and making the
client specifically know about "svn:log" (or SVN_PROP_REVISION_PROP).

And I agree with Garrett that you might want to set the property later
--- that would be good for revision signing, for example.
