You should be using Ev2 rather than the delta editor.

The vtable should be private/encapsulated. See how svn_editor_t
handles its vtable, along with the various callback-setters. The
code/feature-set is much easier to extend, and the API is much easier
to modify when the vtable is hidden.

relpath against what? I presume the root of the tree is defined at
construction time. Thus, all API calls are relative to that implied
root.

I would like to see the notion of a symlink be a first-order item in
this API. The hope is to move away from exposing svn:special and
treating all symlinks as their own type. (and yes, this kinda messes
with your get_kind using svn_node_kind_t)

Just names are easiest. ie. return an array of child names. If you
start returning structures, then you're going to get into versioning
hell for those structures. They become giant gloms of random data.
(ref: the old svn_wc_entry_t, the various svn_info_t structures, and
the haphazard svn_wc_status_t structures).

Screw special. Use kind properly.
I would suggest svn_kind_t. We can then get rid of svn_wc__db_kind_t,
and various APIs can be versioned from svn_node_kind_t over to the new
svn_kind_t.

I don't see the utility here. Every single node becomes an add_* call
into the Ev2 interface. Not very complicated, so I'm not sure how this
helps (or what the problem it is trying to solve).

This should be encapsulated. See svn_editor_t. And that would be
"baton" (we never call it "priv").
