We are running the following version(s) below and have not yet reached 
1.7.

svn windows client:
svn, Version 1.6.6 (r40053)

svn server on SLES 11:

  compiled  Feb 25 2009, 16:12:21

CollabNet too.

But what about the features I wish/request. Do they somehow exist, are they
in the pipeline or do you consider them rubbish?

Shall I fill them to the issue tracker?

Other bug fixes will not help me/us in the particular case. And I would not
consider the current behaviour buggy.
