Re: "svn blame" with a specified revision

Disagree. This, like other 'svn' commands, should be shorthand for
either 'svn blame -rWORKING FILE' (BASE + local mods) or 'svn blame
-rBASE FILE'. I can't decide which, but I'm leaning toward WORKING.

The problem you constantly run into when presuming that omitting a
revision specifier means "equate this with HEAD" is when the item no
longer exists in HEAD. The default behavior should be one which
is guaranteed to work, methinks.
