Hm... don't you agree that the other design would be more useful?
If I have several folders with several autoprops, I have to remember every single setting to commit properly every single folder... that's about the same cost like adding the properties manually instead of auto :o
In my current projects all files should have the same svn-props, but I think others (Thierry) don't.
