svn_client_status5 and depth_as_sticky

Hi,

svn_client_status5 has a parameter depth_as_sticky. According to the doc
string:

If depth_as_sticky is set and depth is not svn_depth_unknown, then the
status is calculated as if depth_is_sticky was passed to an equivalent
update command.

this should report *everything* there is, even items that are excluded
in the working copy (svn_depth_exclude) if also 'update' is true and the
passed depth is svn_depth_infinity.

This used to work a while ago, but now it does not return anything that
isn't in the working copy already anymore.

I don't know when this stopped working since I don't use this feature
very often, but I'm now testing sparse working copies and so I've
noticed that it stopped working.

May I suggest to also add this option to the CL client? currently 'svn
st' does not accept a 'set-depth' or equivalent parameter.

Stefan
