svn:do-not-export property

This has been briefly discussed before, but I would like to bring it up again
– taking a slightly different angle. Perhaps if this resonates with anyone, we
can file a ticket.

It would be really useful to me to have access to an "svn:do-not-export"
property that could be set on certain files I wanted to store in the
repository, but exclude when exporting any given revision.

Today, for instance, I would be using this property to make sure that all of
my Flash (.fla) files get included in the repository but get excluded when I
do an "svn export" to the webroot.

For now I'll just structure my repositories differently, putting web and
development files into separate folders. In the future though, I hope that SVN
will include an "svn:do-not-export" property so that it might conform to the
way I work, instead of the other way around.

Awesome!
