CVSWorkspaceSubscriber ultimately extends ResourceVariantTreeSubscriber
which is the high-level API I would like to pursue more in Subclipse.

I realize that is what it is doing, and I want to continue doing it. What
I was acknowledging was that the high-level Subscriber implementations
make it difficult to use svn status -u. I was merely speculating on ways
we might be able to use the high-level API but still use svn status -u.

Are you saying there are cases where the CVS Synch view exhibits some of
the same problems that we have?

Thanks, this might be useful.
