My opinion is that enforcing such a thing at the technological level is the
wrong approach. I believe that this kind of restriction belongs at the
human-enforced procedures level.
My reasoning is that it is possible to have textual code modifications which
are just as demanding of careful consideration, and to have adds and deletes
which are trivial in nature.
Therefore I think such a restriction would be an impediment but not an
advantange, and therefore not worth additional complexity in mod_authz_svn.
Max.
