Hmmm.

I'm sorry to do this to you, but could you create a second interface?

Binary properties (both name and value) are permissible, so we need to
use svn_string_t. I confess that having a binary *name* is unlikely,
and probably suffers from the same XML attribute problem in our DTD
that filenames suffer from. But adding to the problem won't help
us. :-)
