ssh_user
as a tunnel is not allowed. That would translate to urls in the form of:
svn+ssh_user://
which is a violation of rfc1738 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt):
"Scheme names consist of a sequence of characters. The lower case
letters "a"--"z", digits, and the characters plus ("+"), period ("."),
and hyphen ("-") are allowed."

As you can see, the _ char is not allowed in a scheme name.

But I'll check the code whether your 'url' is not recognized because of
the _ char (which would be correct) or because of a bug in TSVN/svn.

Then please, use that.
Do not introduce custom schemes for no apparent reason.
