Not really. The svn_client_ls() API doesn't return external folders at
all. And reading the properties for every shown folder isn't an option
either:
- too slow
- externals can point to different folders (e.g. ..\..\extfolder), i.e.
they don't have to be children of the folder where the property is set.
