Re: Parseable output: --xml option for more commands

(Bravo for taking this on, Julian!)

I wonder, is there any need to behave differently with '-v' in the XML
case?

Hmm, apparently '-v' does cause 'svn log --xml' to behave differently:
it includes path change information with '-v'. So there's precendent.
But I really wonder if that's a precendent worth following. The whole
point of XML output is that the parser takes what it needs and ignores
the rest.

Also, I echo Philip's questions about non-UTF-8 encodings, and XML
chars appearing in the file contents.
