TSVN could continue to accept a property named "bugtraq" (for
compatibility), while introducing support for a new name; then
Subversion's tree could use that new name.

Later, TSVN could start warning people who attempt to create new
instances of the old name, so they would be encouraged to switch to
the new name. TSVN would still understand the old name in old data,
of course, because this is version control after all :-).

It's up to Stefan and the TortoiseSVN team, I'm just offering the idea.
