I think what Guy was referring to is that when you select File > New >
Project, you see a number of options and one of them is CVS but no SVN;
for parity with the CVS plugin it would make sense to add an SVN option
as well. Selecting the SVN option would do the following:
[1] Repository location information would be gathered (i.e. same as 'New
Repository Location' in the SVN Repository view)
[2] After the repository location is defined the "Checkout As ..."
wizard would be invoked.

This feature would make it easier to migrate CVS users to SVN/subclipse.
