Custom check-in log editor

Hello,

Currently TortoiseSVN does not support anything like command line SVN_EDITOR environment variable which specifies which external program is to be used to edit check-in log message.

Although such feature has been requested before (at least google found question similar to this, however I was unable to find anything related on bug/feature tracker) and the fact that it would greatly simplify integration with various bug-tracking and/or release/delivarable version tracking systems - it doesn't seem to been implemented.
Nothing too fancy would be required - external program launched with temporary text file (perhaps with modified file list filled in, preferably in a similar way to command-line client for portability) as an argument instead of build-in log editor.

So the question - is something like this planned in one of future versions (preferable near future), or are there arguments against such feature?

Thanks in advance,
