I think I just saw a 'bite-sized' issue listed on this today ! :)

Check issues 735, 736, 834/933, they all seem to be interelated.

Most of them actually seem to be about 'svn import' syntax being
confusing, but the summary for 735 is:

   import should 'mkdir -p'

which is basically what you're saying. Well, actually, what you're
is that 'mkdir' should 'mkdir -p' :) Thought I would assume that if
'mkdir -p' functionality were written, both import and mkdir would be
able to use it.
