Yeah it does. But that seems to imple that while looping through a list
of items, I need to call log(itempath, itemrev, itemrev) on each one to
get it's last log.

If I have 100 items, that 100 more calls to the repo. That's can't be fast.

I could also call log([all,items,paths]), but what do I put in start/end
revision params since each item has a differen rev number?

I was getting that impression. It's not a major requirement, but it
would be nice.

OK, I'll bite. What's the difference between the first two, and the last
two in the big picture? Don't the first two imply that the repos viewer
is on the same machine as the repo itself?

Does SVN::Repos fall into that?
