Then you have a mixed revision working copy. To address this case a bit
better, instead of introducing one new keyword like "GlobalRevision", one
could introduce two new keywords instead like "GlobalRevisionMin" and
"GlobalRevisionMax". So the user can decide whether he wants the respective
places to be substituted by the most biggest or most smallest revision number
in his working copy.

I would however substitute all files mentioned in the suggested global
property, no matter which part of the working copy is being updated. So even
if just one unrelated file gets "svn update"ed, all files in the whole working
copy would be substituted.
