I don't think so. The utility of skipping errors on unversioned
things is, I think, mostly so that folks can use globs in their
command-line input instead of picking each and every individual
versioned object from the set of all dirents. But it takes extra
effort to call 'svn cat' on a unversioned target *with a peg
revision*, so I'm less inclined to "let it slide" with a skipped
error.
I'm not thoroughly hung up on that opinion though, so put me at -0.5
for skipping those errors.
