I can understand your situation, but you also have to understand my
position here. You're asking for a feature which should (and can't) be
done right in TSVN but would have to be done in the Subversion library.
So to 'gray' things up a little: if you can convince the Subversion guys
to implement this feature, I will of course make use of it in TSVN too.
