You are right when you say that is only a very small part of the
subversion support. However, the svn ioslave is unmaintained and there is no
cvs ioslave and I personally think that they would work better in KDevelop if
we didn't depend on ioslaves but rather any sort of API provided by the 
projects. For CVS we're pretty much out of luck, but subversion does have a 
client API that we can use at least.
