My first thought on the pattern matching was can we have a way to specify revisions where svn:log MATCHES "[Mm]erge" AND svn:author DOES NOT MATCH "julian".
In other words, two things:
  1. specify a match against a particular rev-prop rather than the current general "found anywhere";
  2. a "DOES NOT MATCH" option;
But I didn't bother asking until I saw your email.  I think this an area for endless possible extensions.
 3. "Search in content of the diff"
is another one.
