I'd stay with the status quo for right now, with the expectation that
things will change over the course of the next few months. If you
introduce *new* wc APIs, which I don't think will be needed, then they
should use svn_wc_context_t.

svn_wc_context_t is an opaque structure which contains a pointer to an
svn_wc__db_t. It's this database handle which contains the real
information used to interface with the working copy metadata. The
database will also handle locking, concurrency, and multiple directory
opening, only instead of keeping track of a collection of them, we
only need one. This is both easier, but it will also help as we move
toward a one-db-per-working copy paradigm.

'svn log subversion/include/svn_wc.h' :)
By the way, I'm happy to answer questions, as are a number of other
people, but sometimes you can get the information you are looking for
using a judicious combination of 'svn log' and 'svn praise'.
'praise' (or 'blame', if you prefer) gives line-by-line change
history, and our log messages usually contain a good rationale for the
accompanying change. Using these tools, you can mine the repository,
which is often much better than mining developers' heads.
