This seems to me like a pretty obvious hazard of the way Subversion
repositories are laid out. I think it would make sense to have
something which would help people avoid doing it by accident, as long
as it didn't prevent them from doing it on purpose.

Say, a property which makes 'svn checkout' print a message and get a
confirmation interactively from the user, or pass a '--force' flag?
