Done:
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=2291

In that case, the svn_info_t structure would have to be extended a
little to take e.g. the filesize entry, which the svn_dirent_t has but
svn_info_t hasn't.

Sure, I could do that. Most of the features I'd like to implement in
TSVN could be done by calling several Subversion API's. The problem here
is as always speed. svn_client_ls() is slow enough as it is (depending
on server, but always _much_ slower than browsing it with a webbrowser).
Adding another call which contacts the repository would make it so slow
users would start complain a lot (they already do now, but there's
nothing I can do about that).
