playground/games is great for new apps, but not quite for feature
work. In the SVN-only era, the correct place would have been
branches/work IMO. Since the Git move is already anticipated, working
in a Git feature branch is the natural solution to me.

You do not need to be concerned about the possibility that the Git
move might be delayed: In this case, one can easily rebase the commits
stored in Git into a Git-SVN repo to commit to SVN then. I'm relying
on such a workflow since over two years, as do at least Parker and
Wolfgang.

If no one objects, I'll set up two repos tomorrow. (Tomorrow is a
holiday in Germany, and I have quite some household and kdegames tasks
in my backlog.)
