I like to suggest XML output support (over the normal --xml switch) for
proplist (with and without -v) and propget. The output could look like this:
<props>
<prop name="svn:keywords">Id URL</prop>
<prop name="user">sdkfokjhbenhnk</prop>
<prop name="blob" encoding="base64">

</prop>
</props>
This would allow property processing by front end scripts, etc.
This shouldn't be this difficult after other commands have already XML
support.
