Except that you need some way in the repository to indicate it as
well. We could introduce a new node kind into the repository, but I
figured just doing it in the WC would be less invasive and would
introduce one less incompatibility between 1.1 and 1.0. I'm open to
debate though. Would it be better to add a new node type to the
repository and use it there and in the WC, or to have a svn: property
along with a new WC entry type and no changes to the repository?
