It's not as if Subversion doesn't already support a superset with support for
http://host/path@REV syntax (as good or bad as that syntax might be).

In any case, it's definitely wrong to successfully parse the user@host URL and
then completely ignore the "user@". Right now, if you specify such a URL,
Subversion will not give an error and will just proceed as if you had not
specified the user at all.

Either it's valid syntax, or it's not. It should be supported, or else there
should be an error saying the URL is not valid RFC 1738 (or at least a
warning).

So would I :)
