The feature is present and works as advertised. It's just not triggered
automatically because there were objections to making decisions on
behalf of the user.

Note that this is the behaviour of 'svn' -- other clients can implement
different behaviour and suggest or even hard-code some default option
without asking the user.

I think the problem with 'svn' is that the menu options were too hard
to figure out. After some discussion with Ivan, I've tweaked the conflict
prompt menu for clarity in this commit: http://svn.apache.org/r1491762

Does this change settle the issue for you?
