I totally agree with you if subversion projects only include source
files. But as SVN is also used to store documents which may be shared
between projects without the "breaking risk", it could be interesting to
have such a functionality. On platforms other than Windows, symlinks
could do the stuff but unfortunately I didn't choose mine... and finally
got Windows :-(
