If I understand what you're saying here, because there is no "trunk/"
directory it won't be possible to check out all the projects at once, or
to commit changes to all at once. Is that right?

Couldn't I just check out the CLIENT_A directory (including the tags and
branches directories)?

Couldn't I just copy the files in my WC, and commit all at once?

That being said, you know what I'd really like: Command line "svn copy"
and "svn move" which works like the shell commands they're based on:

  svn copy file1 file2 file3 filen dest_dir/
  svn move file1 file2 file3 filen dest_dir/

Just a thought.

How do you see broken non-recursive checkouts causing a problem in the
scheme I'm describing?
