I'll take this opportunity to point out that svn* completion for zsh is
maintained in the zsh repository and patches to it would be welcome. At
least we should add any new-in-1.10 options around the time we release
1.10.0-GA. (To interested parties: see Completion/Unix/Command/_subversion;
patches should be sent to zsh-workers_at_zsh.org.)

Cheers,

Daniel

P.S. Over in zsh land there is latent interest in solving this "Update the
completions manually" problem once and for all. My personal favourite approach
is to teach argument parsing libraries (apr_getopt_*, 'import argparse', etc)
to output parseable option parsing specs that *both* bash and zsh can then
consume.
