One thing I'd like to see for this new project is more built-in

Arguably, the existing built-in support is a bug that should be fixed.
If SVN support was a plug-in, it could be more easily fixed when stuff
changes.
Using a plugin for this is still a pain, but revision control parity
would still be a good thing, whether that argues for inclusion or
exclusion in the core.
I suspect one could have implementations in the core that could be overridden by
plugins. Then you can have the best of both worlds at the cost of some
additional complexity.
