If you want to pursue that, go ahead, but I think it is a big mistake.
There is very little, if any, relationship between a Subversion conflict
and a Synchronize view conflict. I do not see how you can reconcile the
two.

A Subversion conflict exists in your working copy after a merge or update
and needs to be resolved locally in the working copy and then likely
committed to the repository. The Edit Conflicts action provides a
graphical ability to see and resolve the conflicts.

A Synchronize view conflict simply means that you have local changes in a
file, and there is also a newer version of the file in the repository.
These changes may or may not conflict with one another. Typically they
will not, and a Subversion update would be able to auto-merge the remote
changes into the local file, at which point it is now just an outgoing
change.
