Agreed.

Attach "provisional" properties to files when they are added. Those props
can come from a dirprop, a per-repos config, or whatever. At commit time,
if those autoprops have changed on the server, then just bail out of the
commit with an "out of date" messages. The user does an "svn up" and the
provisional props get updated to a more recent copy.
