I managed to find more information to help me with the above. In the
pre-commit, I can use svnlook to get the user (thank goodness) and I can
also parse the "changed" output to find the paths that have property
changes. These paths can then be put through "svnlook pl" to get the
property names that are being modified or added in the transaction. I
can use this information to determine if the individual in question is
permitted to make those changes.

Is there an easier way? Since I'm in a Windows environment, I'm
considering .NET console applications for the job of hook script
commands. Would it be easier to get Python and figure it out?
