So what is your definition of a "proper branch" and what exactly
Subversion branch doesn't allow you to do? Is this something to do with
tracing back all the branches that a particular file belongs to? Or
having some snazzy GUI tool to see the history?

I ask because my work with branches is normally quite simple, i.e.
create a feature branch, commit changes, merge to trunk, delete
feature branch. Sometime backport some fixes from one branch to
another, i.e. from trunk to release-X.Y. What else is there that
people need from branches?
