Yes, agreed. And, as someone pointed out, propset could have a
base-revision option (or something) to protect against the race. But,
maybe this last one would be better left out of the cmdline client;
people could use the bindings for this. The problem is, if we
implement propedit, people will keep asking for propset =)
