Restricting access to a subdirectory in the tunk and keep it in tags (mod_authz_svn)

Hello,
In Svnbook (Chapter 6. Server Configuration) I can read that it's
possible to restrict
access to a particular subdirectory using this syntax in authz file :

<<

[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142]
harry = rw
sally = r

[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142/secret]
harry =

In this example, Harry has read-write access to the entire bug-142 tree,
but has absolutely
no access at all to the secret subdirectory within it.

>>

The problem is that I would like to use this kind of restriction to a
subdirectirctory on the trunk
of my project. So, if a tag or a branche is done from the trunk, my
access rules will not follow.

I've seen any questions about this subject on mailing list but there's
no answer available.

2 ways would be simple to use, but it seems impossible with mod_authz_svn :
--- using regexp in authz file to write somethig like that :

[calc:/branches/calc/bug-142]
harry = rw
sally = r

[calc:/*/secret]
harry =

--- find a mechanism to automaticlly update the access rights when a tag
(or a branche) is made

Thanks,

Fred
