I think Greg's suggestion is right on -- using composition editors
relies on undocumented assumptions about the internal implementations
of libsvn_client APIs. Whereas if we use notification functions, we
can document exactly what they do and how they're called (and I have a
feeling tracing will get simpler, in some sense, if we do things with
explicit notification callbacks anyway).

I'd like to do this myself right now, but I'm just going to file an
issue for the nonce :-(, since milestone stuff is more important.
