(Where we understand you didn't actually mean 'revprop'.)
We have that option already ... unfortunately it doesn't actually work:

    $ echo bar > foo

    $ svn add --config-option config:miscellany:enable-auto-props=yes \
              --config-option config:auto-props:foo=svn:special=1 foo
    A foo

    $ ls -l foo
    -rw-r--r-- 1 peters peters 4 Nov 8 10:57 foo

    $ svn ci -mm
    svn: E145001: Commit failed (details follow):
    svn: E145001: Entry '/tmp/foowc/foo' has unexpectedly changed special status
