I guess the one danger of this is if files somehow change in between
the time the commit dialog was opened and the commit was actually
started then the list of files in the commit dialog will not match
what is actually commmited.

I guess this is something that shouldn't really ever happen, but
something people should be careful they don't cause themselves. If
Subversions excessive memory usage when a file list is given is ever
fixed, I think it'd be good to chnge back to the previous method of
always using a file list.
