- Create yet another repository somewhere (or use one of the existing ones)
- Create an empty folder in that repository
- Set svn:externals property on that folder to refer to all projects you want to modify
- Checkout that folder. That should get all projects required
- Make mods
- Commit from top level.
- As far as I have gathered from comments on the list (I have not tried this myself), this should commit all projects to their respective repositories atomically.
That said, I agree that you probably want to have only one repository with several projects in it. That seems to be the normal setup if projects are related in any way, however distant.

Why it should not be possible?! I am not asking for atomic
multi-repository commits!
Just want to select few working copies and commit them at once, instead
of clicking four times for each commit.
Currently I am using a batch script for this, but TortoiseSVN is all
about GUI, so why not? My batch script is very rudimentary, commits are
done serially, the reports go to the console, I have to look over to see
which commit failed...
Adrian.
