No, I don't think so. The Perl bindings should probably be treated just like
the libraries they're covering: don't "just do" something. If the app
doesn't want you to, then it is stuck.

If you have some high level wrappers, then sure. Just make sure that people
can always avoid your "help" if/when they need to.

(this is kind of why the Python bindings, at least, are organized into the
 libsvn and svn packages)
