As mentioned before, Google is often the best source of online help for
what errors *really* mean.

Since the rest of the string can be internationlised, I for one would
really like a "This is error code 'SVNERROR_TOOMANYERRORCODES'" string
somewhere, giving me a suitable searchable token.

(Yes, this may give me explanations written in French, for instance, but
finding French is at least as useful than finding nothing.)

I'd go so far as a +1, with all that entails, and a -0.5 for abandoning
error codes entirely.

Dave.
