IMHO, Subversion shouldn't require/assume/promote any
one particular repository structure. It currently
doesn't (it suggests two different repository
structures). I'm working on a third (see the
ClearCase-like repository structure thread). Someone
else has suggested another way.

What you want can be easily solved with a wrapper. In
fact, since Subversion doesn't require any particular
repository structure, and any practical use of
Subversion will require some sort of structure, I'm
sure many people will write the same sort of wrappers
and hooks. Maybe these can be contributed and placed
into a contrib directory for others to reuse?

MTC,
Noel
