Yes, I believe this is true - only people who have access can copy the
directory to a tag, so that's not a concern. I saw the code in
mod_authz_svn.c a few days ago that did this check looking for
"svn_authz_recursive".

Once it is copied, though, I have to "remember" to restrict permissions
in the copy, which is what I'm apt to forget.
