Hi nick.

I'm not a developer but do stay current with TSVN nightlys.
This is possibly more a client side issue because it's conceivable some
users within a group will need commit access to svn:externals.
Have you looked at using TSVN hooks?

Another brute force method might be to simply make the externals folder
readonly to the logged in user but not to the administrator. Very crude
of course but if its only one or two troublesome users then it might
suffice.
