revprop-change hooks and set vs. delete

Perhaps both revprop hooks should take an additional flag argument
indicating whether the change was a deletion?

If I want to use the revprop hooks to log unversioned property changes,
it seems important to distinguish between deleting a property and
setting it to a null string.

I guess a property's new status can be obverved from
post-revprop-change. However, I don't think there is any way to
guarantee that another process hasn't modified the same property since
the revprop change in question. In any case, this doesn't help if you
need the info at pre-revprop-change time.
