There is absolutely no reason why I should have to babysit TSVN when all I
want to do is "Commit all changes in the entire WC". Which actually leads me
to yet another alternate suggestion that'll most likely just get completely
dismissed: "SVN Commit Entire Working Copy...".

"rm" is notorious for having a bad interface, even by Unix standards.
