Just a note - to undo a scheduled, but not yet committed add - one
should use 'svn revert'.

And indeed:

$ svn mkdir a a/b
A a
A a/b
$ svn revert a
Reverted a
$ rmdir a/b a
$ svn up
At revision 5.

No problems. Your other comment has a point though - and this comment
has a point about broken 'svn rm' behaviour - but the overall thing
which you are trying to achieve does get done with a different
command.
