Authz location-dynamic permission controls? (subversion v1.3)

Hello all,
I need to create a subversion repository for hundreds of users to hold
non-project related data. I already have setup authentication access
through a browser such that they access the repository through an
https:// URL.

However, I'd rather not have to create separate entries for each users
private area in the authz file, but would like it handled more
dynamically, a-la something samba does, like so (smb.conf extract):
        [homes]
          comment = "Home Directory Map"
          path = %H
          browseable = no

In my case, the user has already authenticated, say as jeffrey.davey.
Is there a command structure in the authz format that would allow
something like this (example authz extract):
        [/users/%H]
        %H = rw
        * =

Where %H is the user I've authenticated as? I couldn't find this
capability in the documentation, but is it there? Thanks for any info,
