that isnt a problem either. i have 2 points here:
1. normally you dont develop against trunk you release against versions.
   means you specify "you need version x.y or higher"
   that means you tag your app. and change the external to the tag of
   the library which is supported.

2. you develop against trunk and need a specific version of libX trunk.
   you can tag and point the external to the trunk@rev.

not really needed as you see

just my 2 cents.
