'svn add *' ignores global-ignores -- misfeature?

Hey all,

I've learned by experience and in #svn that 'svn add *' ignores the
global-ignores declaration in config, ostensibly because we want some
way to add *everything*. However, this does't seem like the best
semantics: shouldn't add use --no-ignore to provide for ignoring
global-ignores when that behavior is desired?

I am posting this here per the "Reporting Bugs" doc.[1] I would suggest
that this is a P2 issue since it requires a non-trivial workaround.

Shall I file an issue, or is there a trivial workaround?

Thanks.
