To "shelve":

    svn cp . svn://snapshot-branch

Later, when you want to come back to it, run svn log -v
--stop-on-copy on snapshot-branch to find which revision it was
copied from. In a trunk working copy, do:

    svn merge svn://trunk@copy-from svn://snapshot-branch

Now you're right where you left off, except for the changes trunk
has seen since you left off.
