Moving the passwords into ~/.subversion should probably block on
repos UUIDs, which I'm working on right now. I have the FS side implemented.

I've decided to publish the UUIDs to the client as entry metadata.
Basically, every entry has a URL (or an implicit one inherited from
its parent dir), and every entry should have a repo UUID as well.

This, IMO, accurately models reality (always nice), and will be reasonably
easy to implement. As an added bonus, it makes the "svn switch --rewrite-urls"
validation easy, too.
