So the canonicalization is only canonical within the scope of a
particular client? There are no interoperability problems with
different clients using different values for SVN_PATH_SEPARATOR?
In that case I'll breathe a little easier.

But what about the repository URL for a file whose name contains a
"/"? If my repository is rooted at http://www.example.com/repos/foo
and I import "bar:gaz/onk" (that is, the file "gaz/onk" in the
directory "bar") into it with a client using ':' for
SVN_PATH_SEPARATOR, what URL will the imported file get?
