Yep :)

Wow. This is quite a serious problem. I'm a very new developer, and I
don't really use Subversion. You should probably let the other
Subversion developers know about this on a new thread?
@Daniel, @Stefan: Thoughts on this?

That would be a feature request (although I'm not sure svnrdump will
ever be extended to handle that), because svnrdump is still very
young- it just dumps/ loads dumpfiles from remote repositories quickly
at the moment. I've decided to feature freeze until I fix the perf
issues for the upcoming release- I'll keep this in mind though.
