While appreciative of the addition of the new subcommand, I dislike
the current behavior. The notion of a "rollback to a revision X"
means to restore the state of the file as it was in revision X
(meaning undoing all changes between X and what is in the working
copy). To undo a specific revision, one can use `svn diff' and `patch
-R', or perhaps we could have an `svn undo' subcommand.
