No, I haven't ignored that line. But I'm always a little surprised when
people who haven't sent in one simple patch for this project can assume
the amount of work it needs for a certain feature they want. I wonder
why it's always "not much", no matter what they're asking for.

You really think that you can get me motivated to work on this with that
attitude of yours?
That said, I suggest to drop this issue completely for at least a week
until you calmed down a little. Then we might be able to discuss this
further.
To help you calm down: Subversion 1.5 will have some new APIs to support
changesets. With those, keeping the commit dialog open can be done a
little easier and will be implemented.
