I think having a definitive statement as to the intention of svnlite would help 
frame the discussion in a more productive format.
How do I roll back to last week with FreeBSD-update?
Which of the classes of user that I outlined do you think wants to be able to 
do that?  As a FreeBSD user, I never felt the desire to do that, but maybe I 
was unusual.  As a FreeBSD developer, I don't mind installing the svn port to 
be able to do it (although I'd prefer a more lightweight port).  I would expect 
the same to apply to the sort of engaged user who is willing to bisect to track 
down a bug.
bug reporter:   I have this new bug...
developer:    Can you try rolling back to xyzzy
bug reporter:  Yeah that fixes it..
developer:   Ok.. patch will follow....
