Local repository problems

Hello, I'm having some trouble with a file:// repository.

First of all, there doesn't seem to be any way to restrict read access.
Basically if you can read the db you have read access to the whole
repository. I realise I'd have to run svn setuid for anything else to
work, but am I missing something or is this not implemented yet?

Second svn honors the --username when accessing the repository. I like
that, but there seems to be no way to check the password? As it
currently stands, it seems you can impersonate anyone using this.

Should I setup apache even for local access? (currently only running
apache 1.3 so will be some work).
