We have multiple repositories, and it is still too much to type,
especially for the svn+ssh users, if you're typing it over and over
again all day. CVS has things like the $CVSROOT variable etc...

I'd like, ideally, to let people type things like

   svn cp :trunk/foo :branches/perry/foo

(or maybe @trunk... or something, who knows.)
