Externals: Multiple definitions for the same path

When setting or modifying the svn:externals property it is possible to specify multiple entries for the same path.

Example:

svn propget svn:externals trunk

https://svn-server:8080/svn/multi/extfolder1 barf
https://svn-server:8080/svn/multi/extfolder2 barf
https://svn-server:8080/svn/multi/extfolder1 barf
https://svn-server:8080/svn/multi/extfolder2 barf

IMHO only one entry per path should be allowed.

Would it make sense to implement a check in the command line client and issue at least a warning if someone tries to
commit this kind of property ?
