Unexpected svn add --depth behavior

With SVN 1.6.1, when adding an unversioned directory (containing some
unversioned files) with --depth=empty, this depth will also be set to
.svn/entries file. Hence, resulting working copy is sparse and will
remain sparse also after adding contained unversioned files and
committing all added entries.

If the user isn't aware of this fact, resulting update behavior (new
entries are not fetched), merge behavior, etc. can be quite strange. I
would suggest to set depth "infinity" to added entries regardless of
used --depth parameter (or am I missing something important here?)
