I'll retest to make sure sending in a non-HEAD base revision that
hasn't had property changes since the specified base revision allows
the commit. If not, I guess this will be an even bigger patch.
What about a test to make sure the property exists before deleting it?
The current lib routines will allow you to make no-op propdel commits...
