You know, Karl, you've persuaded me. Your plan is much simpler, I
like it.

If the svn:executable property merely *exists* then chmod +x will be
run at commit or update time. The exact value is irrelevant.
If the user removes the property in a commit, or receives a removal of
the property, then chmod -x is run.

I think I'll switch to that model now.
