Yeah, I like this design much better than my attempt to turn properties into
keywords:

It's been so long since I was in this deep into the Subversion code, I'd hate to
offer anything more than a conditional "I've read through the patch and it looks
like it does what it says it does".

I do agree that the %H and %I syntactic sugar formats are not strictly
necessary, and the fact that they are exclusive of any other format string makes
them less useful. I would actually take them out in preference to writing out
the longer forms, but it wouldn't be terrible if they were left in (and
documented thoroughly)...
