'svn propget -R' output difficult to parse

Hi,

I'm trying to build myself some kind of permissions support with
properties that I can use until proper support is available. While doing
so, I ran into the problem that the output of 'svn propget -R' can be
difficult to parse. Here's an example:

  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn ps cjwatson:unix-perms 700 .hide
  property `cjwatson:unix-perms' set on '.hide'
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn pg -R cjwatson:unix-perms
  700
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn ps cjwatson:unix-perms 600 .muttrc
  property `cjwatson:unix-perms' set on '.muttrc'
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn pg -R cjwatson:unix-perms
  ./.hide - 700
  ./.muttrc - 600
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn revert .muttrc
  Reverted .muttrc
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn pg -R cjwatson:unix-perms .
  700
  [cjwatson@arborlon ~]$ svn pg -R cjwatson:unix-perms . .
  ./.hide - 700
  ./.hide - 700

The -R flag alone isn't enough to trigger filenames being printed, which
makes the output useless - I can't tell from the value of the property
in the output of the second command above what filename it refers to. I
think that filenames should always be printed when -R is used.

Here's what seems to be a workable patch against 3327:

Is this sane, and if so should I file a bug? I scanned through recent
list archives and bug reports and couldn't see anything relevant.

Thanks,
