Impossible. Tried it.

The provider which loads/saves from the wc can't be constructed until
we're way inside libsvn_client. Our svn_client_* routines each do all
sorts of individual argument processing, deciding which things are
paths, urls, etc. It isn't until the moment svn_client_foo() is ready
to open an RA session that it decides it has a wc path. Once it has
that wc path, it can create the wc-provider.

Why? It's just *one* prompt provider. Your app can implement a
different one. The one created by libsvn_client is designed to cache
data.
