Given the larger scope of what I'm doing, the MySQL database looks like what
I need to do.
Thanks for the comments.

You can put anything you like into a log message. If you want to
require an inspection ID, write a pre-commit hook script that rejects
any commit whose message does not contain the inspection ID. On
error, print a message to the user advising them to include an
inspection ID.
If you want to be able to modify a revision's svn:log property (or
any other unversioned property) after the commit, you can install a
pre-revprop-change hook to allow this.
There is no way to search log messages, so there is no facility for
you to find code without an inspection ID. I suggest you set up a
separate (e.g. MySQL) database in which you have a record for each
revision. You can write a post-commit hook and a post-revprop-change
hook that write into this table whenever anybody includes an
inspection ID in their log message. From this you can determine which
revisions lack the property.
You could use the database to store more things as well. You could
put the entire log message into it, for example, so that you could
then use the database to perform searches on the log messages. You
could store other unversioned properties there as well.
