See also Alec's wonderful IniAdmin plugin.

Considering that Trac has no inherent scaling issues (aside from  
SQLite, which is unavoidable) that I know of, I don't see why this  
needs to be out-of-band. TracForge already provides for both global  
permissions/roles, and local ones.

Of course it can. Just run a bunch of select * queries, and build out  
a new schema design from that, then send the rendered schema (using  
the DatabaseManager's to_sql() results) and the rendered inserts back  
to the browser. For Subversion you would probably need to call  
svnadmin dump and capture the output (trivial using the subprocess  
module).
