We can do this today by recommending the following httpd.conf configuration:

    SetEnvIf Request_URI "^" in_repos=0
    SetEnvIf Request_URI "/!svn/" in_repos=1
    SetEnvIf Request_Method "GET" dontlog
    SetEnvIf in_repos 0 !dontlog
    CustomLog logs/access_log withagent env=!dontlog

Note that we can also squeeze in other requests they might wish to not see
logged, too:

    SetEnvIf Request_Method "PROPFIND" dontlog
