I guess we could do that for build purposes. But can we do that to get
a working copy checked out to make the branch you speak of? It seems to
lead to a chicken & egg scenario.
It would also be a lot of work to track down where all the svn:externals
are used... I guess some fancy coding could automate the process
though...
