enhancement needed

Hi,

I'm currently working on a shell integration of subversion and I ran into a
problem which I can only solve if some functions of subversion are enhanced:

I can catch an event whenever the user renames or deletes an file/folder,
ut only AFTER the operation has completed. If I then call svn_client_move()
or svn_client_delete() to sync with subversion those functions just return
with an error that the file is not there (anymore).
Could those functions not just ignore the fact that the file isn't there and only
perform the function? (in the subversion files in .svn).

Maybe this enhancement could be implemented with an additional flag e.g. "virtual".

I think this should be done pre 1.0 cause other clients especially addins for IDE's
will need this kind of behaviour too. Most addins can only catch (if ever) the events
of renamed/moved files/dirs if the actual operation has already completed.
