Hello, What is the story? How is this going to help Subversion users?
The idea sounds interesting. However, I'm not sure how it will help the users. I don't mind whether I have Read Only or Read / Write access to an FTP resource or another kind of remote data. I just know whether I have access to the resource or not. IMO, this is a communication problem and it's not what SVN has to solve.
