I agree.
I'll adapt the statusCommand code accordingly.

What about that "mixed" mode ?
For this single synchornization status call only - we will force to JavaSVN
(ignoring eclipse svnClientAdapter preference) ?
Since we are going to ship JavaSVN within Subclipse distribution it could
work ? Or did I miss something ?
(I vaguelly remember there was some comment there that we even do not need
user credentials for that. Or was it somewhere else ?)
Not that I like such sort of approaches, but as a workaround until fixed svn
1.3 is out it might save us from calling these expensive infos ...

I'm not sure now. I need to see the code.
But you're probably right, for outgoing changes the (repository)
text/propStatus should be "normal",
the WC should be changed. I'll check it.
