I added this feature last month... changing the value of
svn:executable immediately runs 'chmod +x' or 'chmod -x' on the item.
Are you saying that this feature should only operate on files, not
directories? Do we need to put in that restriction?

I don't think that it ever occurred to us that someone would try to
set that property on a directory.... why were you doing that?

Maybe we should prevent that property from -ever- being set on a
directory?
