Svn:ignore property and subfolders

My experiementation tells me that I cannot specify an ignore property at
a root folder that is effective for all subfolders. Am I correct, or
merely failing to define the proper RegEx?
 
I want to define "svn:ignore" on "/MyProject", such that the files and
folders will be excluded for everything below that folder without
setting a property on every subfolder. Thus, "*.user" would be ignored
everywhere, not just in "/MyProject".
