the ra libs for example? I don't know if that will happen but
if someday the callback is used to indicate progress on
network data transfer (e.g. 15kb of 150kb transferred) that
may be in those libs.

I know that. But libsvn_client also uses other libs as well.
And it just doesn't "feel" right if a callback resides in the wc
lib and is used by other (independent) libs too. Especially
if the callback is used not only for indicating progress/changes
in the working copy but also for other occasions (like I already
mentioned: svn export).
