On Linux and AIX the --username argument doesn't seem to work for me.
I specify the username in the URL, e.g. svn+ssh://jim@svnhost.org/.
This is obviously retained, and I am prompted for the password on future
sessions as you'd expect. I use svn+ssh: in conjunction with ssh-agent to avoid
RSI from password typing.
