Well I have to admit I have spent about an hour yesterday training someone
the difference between co and update.

Any experiences from other systems that may help, especially the ones with
similar directory type models?

>From a usability point of view I see the 2 different use cases (cvs model):
 - tagging a whole tree as a release (simple with svn as planned)
 - tagging/branching individual files throughout the tree for reviews
     (involves identifing files easily, building them with HEAD to test,
      comparing with HEAD, commiting comments to branch, merging branch to
HEAD
     I do't know how simple that is in the svn model)
