Its bad enough learning enough to drive the client API. I don't like
being
forced to learn the RA one as well. This is all to hard. Maybe I just
read the
files out of the .svn and skip the API's altogether. I don't like the
way the
path of least code/resistence is to ignore SVN API's. (I already avoid
svn_client_cat and reach into the text_base directly.)

I'm convinced its should be a common need. What will convince you?
Can TSVN show properties in its display? If so it needs this
as well.
