there is no _real_ status for separate properties. Subversion only knows
a property status for *all* properties of an item.
Sure, we could create our own status for this (modified, unchanged,
added, deleted). But then the questions are:
* should we show deleted properties in that dialog?
* if yes, what should we do if the user tries to edit a deleted property?

Agreed. But then again: why do the same in the properties dialog if we
already have the check-for-modifications dialog?

Ok. That would be the easiest to implement.
