You'd might be surprised, but I'm currently working on this (still in
the early stages though). But I don't think we need another regex
property for this: I thought of simply parsing for 'rXXX' should be enough.
Of course, a revision would only be turned into a link if the revision
is already shown in the log dialog - otherwise revisions which relate to
other projects would confuse the whole logic (e.g., a TSVN commit
references a revision of the svn project or another external).
