This is not the correct list to report these "problems".

SVN does not have a web user interface or console, so you are likely using
some other SVN management product and need to report this there. That said,
I would say both of these are more opinion and taste than vulnerabilities.
I manage a SVN related product called SVN Edge and I would not consider
"fixing" either of these issues if that is the product you are using. The
first one is just straight up not a problem and I would never entertain it
as one.   The second one is somewhat a problem though "3" is an arbitrary
number and there are a lot of ways to deal with brute force login attempts.
For example, SVN Edge throttles the login attempts making it impractical to
brute force attack a password.
