ssh access can be restricted to running only the svn command.

It is also possible that, some day, we'll have a protocol along the
lines of the CVS pserver, with its own authentication (say, based on
SASL). ACLs would make sense in that realm too.

So, we shouldn't engineer ACLs so that they're purely dependent on DAV,
or assume that DAV will be the only access method which can meaningfully
have them.
