And even then, what exactly is the effect? What code exactly is going to
bother noticing that the property's value is not "*", given that we
promise it to always be "*" whenever the property is present? :-)

(I've always wondered why symlinks are represented as
metadata = { 'svn:special' : '*' }
data = "link $target"
rather than as
metadata = { 'svn:special' : 'link' }
data = "$target"
.)
