I would say that those classes are indeed useful, but certainly not
required. I'm of two minds on the matter though. On one hand, it
would be nice to have those admittedly nicer interfaces be the default
ones used by the official Subversion binding layer. On the other
hand, that means we have to go out of our way to support that
abstraction, not just for Python but for every other SWIG-supported
language.

Sussman and I were discussing this earlier today, and I think we agree
that this abstraction should live in the subversion tree, but perhaps
in a separate location than the core bindings.
