Ah! penny has dropped! -- cool, yes. The immutability of the SVN revision means that you don't need to reverse the releasetarget, you can go back directly to the [canonical|master|stored] form and see exactly where the releasetarget lines came from.

Yep -- it keeps the release code squeaky clean, and it's not like we don't depend on Subversion being there already for fixing bugs reported in released code<g>.
