Re: atomic revprop commits at the RA level

In IRC and email, I know that cmpilato was really opposed to adding a
new 'metadata' function to the editor API. I say metadata, because
the editor is supposed to be about "how to change a versioned tree',
and not about information surrounding the tree itself. Revprops are
metadata. One could also argue that editor->set_target_revision() is
also metadata about the tree, and should never have been put in.

I know one interesting idea that floated by (in IRC) was to create a
*new* vtable. This vtable would contain metadata funcs, and also an
editor...
