  Isn't it what is happening with symlinks already? At the moment I can
check in a representation of a symlink with svn:special property. If I
check it out on Linux, it comes out as real symlink, but on Windows only
the contents are recreated.
  Thus even with current svn there is no invariant saying that all
working copies should be exactly the same.
