OK, it'd be a nice to have, but since I can get to it via the CLI, I don't really see it as that urgent. Nice to have though, so if
it can be worked in somehow, I for one would appreciate it.

We will be importing our projects (about 500 of them) one at a time from PVCS to Subversion on an as needed or time permitting
basis. If we use the svn:date revision property, the resulting dates will not progress with the revision numbers.

For instance, I'm about to convert my current project. The first time it was committed to PVCS was 11/3/2002 and the last time was
5/15/2005, so when I'm finished importing to my brand new repo, rev 1 will be dated 11/3/2002, and rev 87 with 5/15/2005. Now, when
someone else gets around to importing the next project, which was first checked into PVCS on, for instance, 4/2/2004, the next
sequential revision number in our Subversion repo will have an *earlier* date than the last one for *my* project, in fact, since my
project is a relatively new one, it might have a date earlier even than the first date for mine. I don't want that, so I'm saving
them with a custom revprop.
