But it's done the wrong way, IMO. It's not compatible with any other
client than the odfsvn client.
By giving subversion a way to automatically keep some archives in
uncompressed form in the repository, it should be possible to use svn
keywords in more cases.

The OP was about binary word documents, but fixing the problem for
zipped xml-documents would be good for the future.
