subclipse != cvs eclipse, or how to "reject a change" ? svn API guilty?

the eclipse cvs client allows to reject a change by simply clicking
"mark the local file as merged", and commit it.

There are multiple enhancement requests filed against sublicpse which
get rejected because "svn does not offer such a feature via API" and
"we (subclipse) do not tinker with your files, except via svn API",
see e.g. http://subclipse.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=761.

Alone from the number of requirements its seems pretty clear that
users do want this feature. But I am wondering what the correct place
to implement would be? Or to put it in other words, if one would
implement the feature into the svn command line client, where would
this feature go? above or below the API?
